    Better Advice. Better Benefits.

    VSMG is committed to delivering expert advice, forward-thinking strategies, and cost-effective benefit solutions to help our clients attract and retain employees.

    Whether your challenges are related to cost, population health, legislation, administration, disease management, employee recruitment, retention, education, or all the above, we deliver effective solutions that exceed goals and objectives.

    The VSMG Difference

    As a nonprofit corporation, we know the importance of maximizing budget dollars in all areas, and having access to independent, comprehensive expertise and financial advisement.

    That’s the VSMG difference.

    OUR APPROACH: INDEPENDENT THIRD–PARTY EXPERTS

    Unlike other consulting firms that have high overheads and hefty retainers, we partner with independent, third-party experts. VSMG’s consulting team is partnered with the top nationally and regionally recognized experts in specialized areas to best serve the needs of each client. Our experienced in-house consulting team works closely with our independent experts to stay in front of industry trends and drive results for our clients.

    Transitioning to Valley Schools this spring was a great experience. They were efficient, proactive, and really helped make the move to our new employee benefit consultant and administrator easy. Communication was clear throughout, and the resources now available to us will really help us better support our team.

    Valley Schools is an amazing resource and support to me by assisting with our employee’s wellness efforts, compliance support and providing a wide range of benefit offerings. They are a bridge that provides supports to me that then allows me to better support our employees. They provide amazing customer service and boots on the ground support, time and time again. I can call with any questions or concerns no matter how big or small and always receive wonderful support from not only my account manager but from anyone I reach out to at Valley Schools.
