Self-Insurance Feasibility
Many organizations have discovered that self-insurance methods are a preferred way to provide their employees with outstanding healthcare coverage, as well as cost-effective options to meet all their insurance needs. Some of the benefits companies achieve with self-insurance include:
- An estimated 12% savings in first-year cash flow
- Elimination of most premium tax
- Lower cost of operations and vendor profit margin
- Control over plan design (e.g., avoiding state mandates)
- Return on investment (ROI) for reserves
- More targeted disease management that drives dollars directly to the bottom line.
