Miltenyi 2024 Case Study

Introduction

Established in 1989, Miltenyi is a pioneering biotech company that has significantly contributed to the progress of the biomedical science field. Their integrated technologies have driven advancements in applications such as cellular research, genetic sequencing, high-content imaging, and commercial scale manufacturing for cellular therapies.

 

Employer Challenges

Miltenyi faces limitations in benefits communication and enrollment management due to its workforce demographics and enrollment complexity.

Diverse Workforce

Miltenyi employs a multinational staff, including an expat population new to the U.S. benefits system. This presents unique challenges to the company’s benefits communication efforts

Enrollment Platform Complexity

The complexity of Miltenyi’s benefits enrollment platform makes it difficult for employees to use. With no unified system in place, employees must navigate multiple sites for enrollment, leading to confusion and inefficiency.

CPI Strategies

To address these challenges, CPI implemented a multi-faceted approach.

Multiple Communication Channels

To effectively reach employees and their spouses/partners, CPI created both print and digital materials and deployed them in several ways.

Hero Site

This custom, single-topic microsite distributed key benefit and enrollment details to employees through company email.

Navigation-Enhanced Benefit Guide

An interactive guide, accessible via the Hero Site and intranet, allowed employees to learn about their plans in a way that aligned with their benefit needs.

Benefits Overview Video

This customized video offered an attractive option for visual learners, was hosted on a unique URL, and was shared with employees via the Hero Site.

Traditional Postcard

Printed postcards were sent to employees’ homes to reach all household members and offer access to additional resources through a QR code.

Visual Communication Focus

To meet the needs of employees with all levels of benefits literacy, CPI used infographics and callouts for important information, and minimized text to make the content more comprehensible.

Independent Benefit Enrollment Information

Live links within the deliverables directed employees to relevant enrollment pages, thus eliminating confusion about where to go and what to do. Eye-catching enrollment reminders were also included on both print and digital pieces to aid in recognition.

Outcomes

As a result of these initiatives, Miltenyi witnessed a remarkable increase in enrollment during the 2024 Open Enrollment period. An impressive 97% of employees actively participated and enrolled in their benefits. This not only addressed their initial challenges but also positioned the company to highlight the value of their benefits package. The enrollment information gathered will play a crucial role in evaluating future offerings, indicating a successful transformation for Miltenyi. 

2023 Net Promoter Score

What Does This Mean?

Providing the highest level of hospitality is important to us. Surveys give us the feedback we need to continually meet this goal. We’re pretty proud of our Net Promoter Score (NPS). Here’s why:

What Is NPS?

NPS is based on the percentage of survey respondents who are promoters, passives, and detractors:

  • Promoter: Score of 9 or 10
  • Passive: Score of 7 or 8
  • Detractor: Score of 0 to 6

Scores range from -100 to 100. The higher the score, the higher the percentage of promoters versus detractors.
