Level Funded Plans now include Mineral HR and Compliance Solution
UnitedHealthcare and Mineral™, which was recently acquired by Mitratech, have expanded their relationship to include Mineral’s HR compliance and ACA reporting solution with all Level Funded plans.
We get it — HR is complex. Compliance regulations are ever changing, employee needs are constantly shifting and trying to stay on top of everything takes valuable time away from running your business.
In fact, owners of small- and medium-sized businesses say their top three compliance challenges are not having enough expertise, budget constraints plus rapidly changing federal, state and local laws or regulations.1 Not to mention starting in 2024, employers filing 10 or more returns in aggregate must file their Forms 1094 and 1095 electronically.
“UnitedHealthcare recognized the ongoing HR and Compliance challenges many of our small business clients and brokers are experiencing,” said Dave Milich, CEO of UnitedHealthcare West Region. “We at UnitedHealthcare are now expanding the reach and depth via our Mineral relationship to solve for this and bring world-class HR compliance nationally to all level funded plans including ACA and IRS compliance filings to the solution set.”
As part of the expanded collaboration, Mineral now includes an Affordable Care Act (ACA) reporting solution to support filing 1094 and 1095 forms with the IRS. The suite of products included with UnitedHealthcare Level Funded also includes premium products such as multi-state Spanish translation e-signature handbooks, harassment training and workplace safety.
"The Mitratech ACA reporting tool is so nice,” said Joy Sassman, director of Human Resources at Sassman Glass & Mirror. “It took no time at all to review forms, have them mailed, and electronically file. I've already completed the tax year and for the first time in several years I was able to do this without making a call for help to anyone. I appreciate how simple the tool is to use and having one less thing to worry about."
These Miratech solutions help Level Funded groups in a number of additional ways as well, including with online training courses, HR best practices and a searchable compliance library.

“There is no better compliment than when a carrier like UnitedHealthcare doubles down on our rollout of Mineral inside UnitedHealthcare health plans,” said Senior Executive at Mitratech Vince Murdica. “Going from roughly 25 states last year to a National Level Funded deployment in 2025, it’s been a great pleasure to work with Dave and the UnitedHealthcare team to quickly address the pain points our clients and brokers are faced with and bring market leading solutions to solve them.”
