2026 Benefits Benchmark: Cost trends, plan choices, and what your peers are choosing

Every renewal season, HR leaders walk into broker conversations without knowing what their peers are doing. The best they have is gut instinct, a broker's recommendation, and maybe a few anecdotal conversations with other HR leaders.

This year, there's a better starting point.

Rippling's 2026 Benefits Benchmark Report is built from real plan selections and enrollment data across thousands of Rippling customers — what companies like yours are actually choosing, broken down by headcount, industry, and geography.

In this webinar recording, Rippling's senior benefits advisors Nicole Hinel and Kevin Cassata walk through the findings from the report and answer questions from the audience.

You'll walk away knowing:

• What companies your size and industry are actually choosing for medical and dental this year

• Where most companies are leaving value on the table before they reach the negotiating table

• The questions to ask before you finalize anything this renewal season
