Assuming the Risk

With a self-insured plan, the employer’s costs include claims, insurance taxes, administrative fees, the insurer’s risk and profit charges, as well as a provision for possible claim increases (inflation and higher usage).

Taking a Calculated Risk

Reimbursed claims reflect the group’s actual experience, which is often more favourable than the inflation assumption used by the insurer.

The business takes on all medical, dental and weekly indemnity claims, while the risks of other benefits (life, accidental death and dismemberment and long-term disability) are taken on by one or more insurers.

  3. Creating quarterly experience reports to better monitor the plan’s financial developments
