Strategic Benefits
One of the most effective ways to retain and attract the best employee talent is to offer a competitive employee benefits package. Shopping for individual health insurance can be overwhelming. Trust the agency team that has helped thousands of local Nebraska & Iowa families find affordable short-term health insurance plans, individual major medical plans, and marketplace health plans.

Turning 65 or looking for a more affordable Medicare option? Our agency team is very active in the Medicare market in both Nebraska and Iowa. Because we are an independent agency, we can offer plans from more than 20 different Medicare supplement insurance companies. Strategic Benefit is a full service Health Insurance Agency and Employee Benefits Consulting Brokerage headquartered in Omaha, NE.
Services
Since 2010, the team at Strategic Benefits has provided customized employee benefit solutions and affordable individual plans across the states of Nebraska and Iowa. We are an independent insurance and employee benefits firm and therefore are not beholding to one particular insurance company. We only work for you.
Mike Mandolfo founded Strategic Benefits in 2010 with a passion to help clients manage their health insurance and employee benefit plans in the ever-changing landscape of health care reform. After spending many years within the insurance and human capital management industry, Mike noticed a division between broker solutions and consumer needs.
The agents at Strategic Benefits are individual & family health insurance plan experts in NE & IA. We are Health Insurance Marketplace certified for subsidized plans. Our goal is to address the needs of our clients as they move through the many changes in life. Under the Affordable Care Act, everyone is required to have health insurance, with rare exemptions.
Short Term health insurance plans can provide flexible coverage terms from 30 days up to 36 months in Nebraska and Iowa. These plans are also referred to as Temporary Health Insurance Plans. You can select the specific coverage duration to meet your needs. Coverage can also begin next day without a qualifying event.
The Health Insurance Marketplace is a good resource for individuals who DO NOT have health insurance through a job, Medicare, Medicaid, the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP), or another source that provides "Qualified Coverage". Depending on your annual income, family size, and other factors, you may receive a subsidy to reduce the cost of your monthly health insurance premium by applying and enrolling through the Marketplace.

I have been working with Strategic Benefits and Mike for the last 2 years. I found him online to help me find great insurance for our employees being a very small clinical office without it costing my staff and the office a lot of money. I truly love working with Mike and the staff at Strategic Benefits! They make my life so much easier as an office manager by helping me find the best plans for the staff, but yet help us with the employer premiums as well. He makes sure that I can take great care of my staff! They are always fast at responding to my questions and make new hires paperwork a breeze

I was referred to Mike by a friend who sought out his help for Medicare advice. He was very friendly and enjoyable to work with. He spent a good amount of time with me and I never felt rushed. I would recommend Mike as a Medicare consultant to anyone in need.

Mike is the BEST to work with!! He can explain insurance in the best possible way for someone to understand. Mike has the bes personality and is so fun to work with. He can make a pretty boring topic (like insurance) and still make it a really enjoyable conversation. He has gone above and beyond for myself and my husband, I couldn't appreciate him more!!

Mike was so knowledgeable and very helpful to me as I needed guidance choosing health insurance. Over the course of several phone conversations, he spent a good deal of time walking me through different options and assessing the pros and cons of each. I truly can't say enough positive things about the service he provided to me. His knowledge of health care options assured me I was making an informed decision. I will contact Mike again and highly recommend his services to others.

As a new resident of Nebraska, I was referred to Mike at Strategic Benefits by word of mouth. Mike streamlined my family's health insurance search. He presented options that I had not considered and helped to take out the guesswork and frustration of choosing a good insurance plan. Mike is professional, punctual and pleasant to work with. Thank you!

Coming from a small Care Center facility, our prior agent was not helpful getting us approved for our renewal following a denial. I had experience working with Mike at a prior facility and asked him for help. Long story short, not only did he get us approved he was able to provide options for our staff that were AMAZING! Best insurance I’ve had personally since moving to Nebraska. He helps you through every step of the process and is incredibly responsive to all questions/concerns. I wholeheartedly recommend his company for your insurance needs!
