Also declared: death benefits, 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.

Where a line has more than one insured contract, the carrier and the covered figure are the largest contract's by premium. The contracts are not added up: a pharmacy carve-out and the medical carrier beside it cover the same people.

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.

Premium and claims on this contract

VISION SERVICE PLAN, contract 30100358. For the contract year on this filing, the carrier reported $104,902 in premium earned and $125,692 in claims incurred. Dividing one by the other gives 120%.

  • VISION SERVICE PLAN, contract 30100358 reported $17,833 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.
