Limitations of Legacy Group Mediclaim and the Unified Way Forward

E-Well Benefits: An Overview 
E-Well Benefits by Anand Rathi IT (ARIT) is a state-of-the-art, digital-first employee benefits management system built to redefine how enterprises manage group mediclaim benefits. Designed with enterprises, brokers, HR leaders and employees in mind, the benefits management suite bridges the gap between human resources, employees, third-party administrators (TPAs), and insurers, all through a seamless, centralized digital interface. 

Group mediclaim, a critical pillar of employee well-being, is often weighed down by fragmented communication, outdated claim processes, and disengaged experiences. Legacy systems, with clunky interfaces and scattered data, leave HR teams overwhelmed, employees frustrated, and decision-makers operating without clarity. The result? Higher costs for companies and diminished value for the workforce.   

If your organization has faced delayed reimbursements, lack of visibility into claims, disconnected communication among HR, employees, and insurers, and the struggle of operating through outdated benefit systems, you need a smarter way forward. That’s why it’s better to switch to E-Well Benefits, an intelligent mediclaim management platform designed to streamline mediclaim processes for smoother HR operations and improved employee experience.

Limitations of Legacy Mediclaim Systems 

Group mediclaim has evolved from a mere checkbox in employee benefits to a significant indicator of how an organisation prioritises the well-being of its people. However, despite its growing importance, many organisations still rely on outdated, legacy systems to manage group health insurance. These traditional systems are often complex, inefficient, and disconnected.

If you have been managing group mediclaim the old-school way, these challenges may hit close to home: 

1. Disconnected Processes that Drain Everyone’s Time

One of the most common complaints about traditional mediclaim systems is the lack of a unified workflow. For HR, it means chasing data across departments, manually coordinating with TPAs and insurers, and answering the same questions repeatedly. This fragmentation leads to: 

• Lost or duplicate data across systems 
• Delays in claim approvals due to unclear ownership 
• Frustrated employees who don’t know where to go for help 

2. Zero Real-time Visibility

Despite the digital leaps across industries, claims processing for group health benefits still runs on outdated, fragmented systems. Employees submit their claims and then endure days of uncertainty, with no real-time updates or progress tracking. On the HR side, there is an absence of intelligent dashboards or timely insights into critical metrics, such as: 

• No updates on claim turnaround times 
• No clue about the common reasons for rejections 
• Missed access to utilisation trends across different plans 

3. Limited Configurability & High IT Dependency

HR teams often need to make quick adjustments—whether it’s adjusting an eligibility rule, changing a rater formula, or introducing a new plan for a business unit, HR teams must rely on IT for every minor change or update. HR teams encounter delayed rollouts, limited flexibility, and recurring roadblocks in executing strategic initiatives, as they lack the ability to independently manage benefit configurations such as:

• Inability to self-manage plan or rule changes
• Delays in rolling out new benefits or configurations
• Reduced agility in adapting to business shifts
• Strategic HR initiatives slowed by technical bottlenecks

4. Poor Employee Experience

Traditional portals are often clunky, unintuitive, and built for compliance, not usability. Most employees avoid them unless absolutely necessary. And when employees don’t trust or use the system, the value of the entire program erodes. That results in: 

• Underutilized benefits 
• Frustration when emergencies strike and information is hard to find 
• Dependency on HR for basic tasks like checking coverage or claim status 

5. Endless HR Queries and Manual Support

Without intuitive self-service tools or conversational interfaces, HR turns into a round-the-clock helpdesk. From everyday queries like “What’s my sum insured?” to urgent questions like “Where’s my reimbursement?”, the stream of inquiries becomes relentless. This leads to:  

• HR burnout due to constant query handling 
• Reduced focus on strategic, high-value initiatives 
• Slower responses that erode employee satisfaction 
• Dilution of HR leaders’ impact where it matters most 

6. Data Privacy and Security Concerns

In traditional setups, sensitive employee health data often moves across unsecured email threads, outdated portals, or shared spreadsheets. Not only is this inefficient, but it also opens the door to compliance risks and reputational damage. With increasing scrutiny on data protection, companies need systems that are secure by design, not just patched for compliance, as compromised security may lead to:

• Exposure of health data via unsecured communication channels
• Increased risk of regulatory non-compliance and penalties
• Reputational harm due to data mishandling or breaches
• Lack of audit trails and access control in legacy workflows

7. No Actionable Analytics

The traditional tools embedded within most legacy systems do little more than processing claims. They confine valuable insights to static reports and unsearchable spreadsheets, forcing HR teams to make decisions in the dark. In a world driven by data, this outdated approach limits impact and agility. Without embedded analytics, organisations miss out on:  

• Detecting high-cost employee groups and claim clusters 
• Spotting benefits that are underutilised or misaligned 
• Revising policies based on real-time trends and performance

Others may promise automation, but only E-Well Benefits delivers it out-of-the-box.

Your team already uses enterprise tools — why force them to juggle new passwords? With Single Sign-On (SSO), E-Well Benefits lets employees log in securely using their existing work credentials. One click, and they’re in — no friction, no fatigue. 

Other platforms? Often lack true SSO support or require extra middleware.

Other platforms? You’ll need a patchwork of tools and a lot of patience to get the same result.
