We bring education, enrollment support, and industry-leading technology to voluntary and supplemental benefits — at no cost to employers or brokers.
Too many employees have benefits they don't understand and never use. Foothills exists to change that — through education, communication, and enrollment support that puts employees first.
Whether you're an employer looking to attract and retain top talent, or a broker building a stickier, more profitable book of business — Foothills has a dedicated path for you.
HYKE is our AI platform that personalizes benefits education and enrollment guidance for every employee, every time.
From small businesses to large enterprises, school districts to municipalities — we tailor our approach to fit your workforce.
Benefits programs designed for teams of 2–99 that compete with the big guys for talent. No minimum headcount, no complexity.
Scalable enrollment infrastructure, robust technology, and dedicated account management for complex, multi-site organizations.
Specialized expertise for government employers, school districts, municipalities, and public institutions with unique needs.
We represent two of the most trusted names in worksite and voluntary benefits.
Foothills brings education, technology, and dedicated enrollment support to your workforce — at zero cost to you. We handle the complexity so your team focuses on what matters.
Voluntary benefits are supplemental insurance products offered through the workplace that employees choose and often pay for themselves through payroll deduction — at group rates they couldn't access on their own.
Unlike major medical, voluntary benefits pay cash directly to employees to cover the out-of-pocket costs that health insurance doesn't — lost wages, deductibles, childcare, rent, and more.
Most employees enroll in benefits they don't fully understand. Better education leads to higher participation and greater satisfaction.
Nearly 4 in 5 employees say their benefits package is a major factor in deciding to stay with their employer.
Our enrollment support, education programs, and technology are provided at no direct cost to employers. Employees fund coverage through payroll deduction.
We adapt our approach to your workforce, your challenges, and your goals.
You don't need 500 employees to offer a competitive benefits package. Foothills gives small employers access to Fortune 500-level voluntary benefits programs — with full enrollment support and zero administrative burden on your team.
Large employers need more than a product — they need a partner who can handle complex enrollment logistics, multiple locations, diverse workforces, and deep HR system integrations. Foothills delivers.
Government employers, school districts, and municipalities operate under different rules, budget constraints, and compliance requirements. Foothills understands the public sector and builds programs that fit.
From the first employee meeting to the last claim payment, Foothills is your benefits partner every step of the way.
Custom email campaigns, benefit guides, video explainers, and multilingual materials that ensure every employee knows what they have and how to use it.
On-site, virtual, and 1-on-1 enrollment options with trained benefits counselors who help employees choose the right coverage for their life and budget.
Our AI platform provides personalized guidance, digital enrollment, and year-round support — integrating seamlessly with your existing HR systems.
When employees need to file a claim, we guide them through the process — reducing confusion, speeding payments, and showing your workforce you care.
Real-time dashboards track participation, employee satisfaction, and program effectiveness so HR can demonstrate value to leadership.
Benefits questions don't stop after open enrollment. We provide ongoing employee support 365 days a year — not just during enrollment windows.
We offer a comprehensive suite of voluntary and supplemental benefit products, all backed by Colonial Life and Unum Group.
Cash benefits for injuries from accidents — ER visits, fractures, dislocations, and more.
Lump-sum payment for major diagnoses like heart attack, stroke, and organ failure.
Financial protection for cancer diagnoses, treatment, and recovery expenses.
Daily cash benefits for hospital stays, ICU confinement, and related treatments.
Income replacement when illness or injury prevents an employee from working.
Term and permanent life options to protect families from financial hardship.
Affordable dental and vision coverage to complement major medical plans.
24/7 virtual doctor access for employees and their families — no co-pay required.
In today's competitive labor market, the employers who win the talent war understand one thing: people don't just work for paychecks. They work for workplaces that show they care.
A well-communicated voluntary benefits program tells your employees: "We've thought about what happens when life gets hard — and we've got your back."
Every business is different. Every employee is different. That's why we don't force a one-size-fits-all enrollment experience — we bring the right solution to wherever your people are.
A dedicated benefits counselor sits down with each employee at your worksite — answering questions, explaining options, and guiding them to the right coverage.
Video-based 1-on-1 sessions with a licensed counselor — ideal for remote workers, distributed teams, or employees who prefer to enroll from home.
A simple phone call with a benefits counselor — no video required. Perfect for employees who aren't tech-savvy or prefer a more traditional experience.
Our AI-powered platform walks employees through personalized benefit recommendations at their own pace — answering questions and guiding decisions 24/7.
Employees who prefer to move at their own pace can enroll digitally — with clear benefit summaries, comparison tools, and decision support built in.
We coordinate enrollment across all your sites, shifts, and schedules — including nights, weekends, and non-desk workers who are hardest to reach.
Spanish-speaking counselors are available to ensure every employee — regardless of language — gets the same quality guidance and understanding.
We build custom email, text, and print communication campaigns that prime your employees before enrollment opens — driving awareness and participation.
Once enrollment closes, you receive a complete participation report — who enrolled, what they chose, and where gaps remain so you can plan ahead.
Mix and match enrollment methods, or let us recommend the right approach for your workforce. No rigid process, no extra cost.

Here's exactly what you get when Foothills is in your corner — from first pitch to ongoing account management.

Co-branded HYKE deployments so your clients associate the technology with you.
Voluntary and supplemental benefits create new revenue streams within accounts you already have — and make those accounts far less likely to leave.
We analyze the group's current benefits, workforce demographics, and gaps in coverage to identify the highest-impact opportunities.
Foothills builds a custom supplemental program recommendation — including product mix, pricing, and a communication strategy tailored to the workforce.
Our team manages the entire enrollment process. You stay in front of the client while we do the work.
Ongoing claims support, HYKE technology, and year-round service make renewals near-automatic and open conversations about additional lines.
Beyond voluntary benefits, Foothills can help you expand into adjacent lines that deepen your relationship with each account:
Every employer has a different workforce. Every workforce has different needs. That's why Foothills doesn't lock you — or your clients — into a single enrollment model. We bring whatever the group needs to get it done right.
Our licensed counselors go on-site and meet individually with each employee — building the kind of trust that drives participation and keeps clients renewing.
Video-based 1-on-1 sessions that serve remote workforces, multi-location groups, or any client who can't accommodate on-site enrollment.
A counselor-guided enrollment over the phone — ideal for clients whose employees work in environments where screen time isn't an option.
Your competitive advantage. HYKE guides employees through personalized benefit decisions with AI — making you look like the most tech-forward advisor in the room.
Digital self-service enrollment for clients who want to empower employees to go at their own pace — with built-in decision support so choices are still informed.
Foothills manages all enrollment scheduling, employee communication, counselor coordination, and reporting. You focus on growing your book, not managing enrollments.
Spanish-speaking enrollment counselors ensure your clients' entire workforce is covered — a meaningful differentiator for groups with diverse employee populations.
We build pre-enrollment campaigns — emails, text alerts, benefit guides, and print materials — tailored to each client's workforce, culture, and communication style.
Our counselor-led model consistently outperforms self-service-only enrollment. More enrollees means more premium, better persistency, and a stronger case for renewal.
Some groups need in-person. Some need HYKE. Some need all five. We work with you to design the right enrollment solution — at no cost to you or your clients.
