In addition to running Adept Benefits, I am the Director of Community Engagement for a non-profit called the Health Commons Project. I am helping bring communities together to care for our most vulnerable population, our Medicaid population. The work we are doing is giving this population a chance to succeed, receive holistic care and simultaneously frees up the employer’s health care dollars that are being spent to foot this bill.
This work is so rewarding! It is great we are able to save money but at the end of the day, our mission is to get people the right health care at the right place at the right time for a fair and reasonable cost.”

This has led me to making some big changes, including applying and being accepted into the Health Rosetta program! I have focused on creating quality content on LinkedIn to reach a broader audience and continually strive to communicate more effectively to employers and employees about their benefits and how to use them.
This past year has also seen me become a runner! I spent the first 50+ years of my life telling myself that I couldn’t run. Then a funny thing happened; I was tired of being a spectator watching my son and husband run at events and decided I it was time for me to be a participant.
I kept telling myself that if I could do “x”, then I could do this too. I ran my first 5k from start to finish on the 4th of July, something I truly believed was impossible. Now I take this mentality into the challenges I face in business and changing the way we purchase and communicate health care benefits.”
Glendae Tuthill, Benevestco – A Resource Seven Company
Being at the forefront of the employee benefits industry, along with my knowledge and experience, has afforded me to lead my company to acquire new clients and provide service that they have not had in the past.
With all of the changes and government regulations surrounding health insurance and employee benefits that have taken place in recent years, I feel as if my company has done an excellent job in ensuring that our clients are both informed and prepared to meet their regulatory requirements. I also feel as if my employer groups have a true belief that I am doing my due diligence and always looking out for their best interests.”
As always, if you know of great women in the field who are working hard to make this industry even better, send me an email introduction to scombs@combsandco.com. I’d love to connect!
