How this plan is funded

Both, as reported

The medical insurance contracts on the filing cover fewer than half the people in the plan, so the rest is paid another way.

A stop-loss policy appears on a Form 5500 only when the plan itself is the beneficiary, or the premiums are paid from plan money. Many employers buy stop-loss and never report it here. So a plan with no stop-loss on its filing may still have it.

Also declared: other welfare.

Declared benefits are the plan’s own line 8b codes on Form 5500. “Not on Schedule A” means no insured contract for that line appears on this filing. That usually means the benefit is self-funded, or it sits under a different plan number.

Persons covered is the count the carrier filed for that policy at the end of its policy year, and it can include dependents. Participants is the plan's own count at the start of its plan year. The two count different people, so a covered figure can be larger.

Plan brief

Schedule A lists 4 insured contracts covering health, vision, life and stop-loss; the largest, with THE NORTH RIVER INSURANCE COMPANY, covers 1,272 people.

The medical plan carries stop-loss coverage: the filing reports the plan paying its own health claims, with insured protection against large ones.

Reported premium is $3,660,462; the filing discloses no broker commission on these contracts.

The health contract's policy period ended in May, while at least one ancillary line's policy period ended in December. The plan is on a split renewal cycle.

No broker of record is named on the Schedule A. The contracts may be written directly with the carrier, or the broker fields were left blank on the filing.

Premium and claims on this contract

  • VISION SERVICE PLAN, contract 12159342 reported $20,999 in retention.

Retention is what the carrier kept of the premium after claims, as reported: administration, commissions and other charges.

Only experience-rated contracts report these figures, so most filings leave them blank.

Covered = persons covered at policy year end, as filed on Schedule A for that policy — often certificates or one class, not the whole plan. Premium = the filing’s own premium/charges figure; “—” means not credibly reported.
