Client Testimonials
SEK's audit team completed Employee Health Benefit Plan financial audits for three of our municipal cooperative programs. We were very impressed with the initial year audits that were completed efficiently and thoroughly. They took steps to ensure their understanding of our benefit plan model. Presentations to the respective cooperative boards were very well received. The board has re-engaged the firm under a multiple year engagement.

Lincoln Benefit Trust is a school district consortium of 22 school districts and is complex in its accounting of each school district. SEK handled the transition of learning about LBT very smoothly and understands LBT’s purpose and mission. I happily recommend SEK for auditing services and look forward to continuing our relationship
