Stop Loss:

Limiting Exposure to Catastrophic Claims

 

  

Simply stated, insurance is a promise ~ a promise between policyholders and their insurance carrier.  In these uncertain times, be sure that your insurance carrier is prepared and willing to honor its commitments. 

 

Stop loss insurance is not a commodity.  It is vital protection for sponsors of self-funded medical plans against catastrophic or unexpected claims.  The cost of stop loss policies is often less than 5% of overall plan expenses, yet coverage options and carrier resources vary widely. 

 

Self-funding is a model that offers many advantages to employers.  Selecting the right stop loss partner is an important key to ensuring that your plan operates smoothly and cost effectively.  We value long-term relationships and we work to collaboratively price each opportunity according to unique risk characteristics.
