Benefits Programs
When it comes to employee healthcare and benefits, we view the world differently. We put employee health first. We work with our clients to uncover their unique healthcare needs, opportunities, and pain points, with the ultimate goal to lower costs and improve the quality of care for employees. Our innovative thinking means we challenge the current healthcare status quo and reset a company's health plan to align with its priorities, goals, and values.
Fully Insured
This is the traditional model where the employer pays a fixed monthly premium based on employee enrollment to an insurance carrier for medical coverage. In return, the insurance carrier pays claims and manages plan benefits. At the end of the plan year, the employer faces a renewal with an increase in premiums determined by the claims paid and premiums collected from that year.
Self-Insured
In self-insured plans, employers pay two types of costs: fixed costs and expected claims. The fixed costs are the regular monthly fees that are necessary for management of the program and paid to the third-party administrator. These costs are based on plan enrollment and cover things like: claims administration, online portal access, pharmacy benefit management integration, and case and utilization management. The other part paid for this coverage is the expected claims. Employers pay claims as they occur up to the specific deductible at which point the stop loss coverage kicks in and reimburses the employer the cost of those claims in excess of an individual's specific deductible. At the end of the plan year, the employer keeps those budgeted for but unused funds and can allocate them for employee.
Captive Solution
There is power in numbers. Captive solutions comprise a group of self-insured companies. Together, the group lowers costs and addresses risks while still maintaining control. Groups can be made up of businesses from the same or different industries, making this an appealing option for smaller organizations.
