How this plan is funded
Both, as reported
The filing reports both insurance premium and benefits paid from the plan's own money, and the two amounts do not line up.
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.
Benefits declared on this filing
Health: the largest of the 10 insured health contracts, with KAISER FOUNDATION HEALTH PLAN OF THE MID-ATLANTIC STATES, INC., covers 913 of 46,621 participants (2%) on Schedule A.
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.
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.
Plan brief
Schedule A lists 15 insured contracts covering health, dental and life; the largest, with PRUDENTIAL INSURANCE COMPANY OF AMERICA, covers 30,745 people.
The filing declares health, dental, life, vision and disability. Vision and disability appear 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 $53,530,957, with $100,985 in disclosed broker commissions — about 0.2% 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.
AMERICAN BENEFITS & COMPENS SYSTEM is the broker of record on 1 of the 15 contracts; the rest name a different broker or none.
Schedule A insurance contracts
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.
