How this plan is funded
Fully insured as reported
The filing reports medical coverage through an insurance contract on Schedule A, and no money paid for benefits by the plan itself.
Benefits declared on this filing
One contract on this filing does not say which benefits it covers, so a line above may be insured by it.
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.
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 disability; the largest, with BLUE CROSS BLUE SHIELD OF KANSAS CITY, covers 15,765 people.
The filing declares health, vision, life, disability and dental. Dental appears with no insured contract on Schedule A. That coverage may be self-funded, placed with a carrier that is not on this filing, or written on the contract here that does not say what it covers.
Reported premium across the insured contracts is $111,506,067, with $574,665 in disclosed broker commissions — about 0.5% of premium.
The most recent policy period ended in December, and the plan year ends December 31. Group contracts typically renew on that annual cycle.
HOLMES MURPHY & ASSOCIATES LLC is the broker of record on 1 of the 4 contracts; the rest name a different broker or none.
