So, what's the catch—why doesn't every employer offer their employees personal health
policies?
•Most people, even experienced group health insurance agents, incorrectly think that personal
policies cost more than group policies. However, most states have put laws in place to allow carriers
to sell personal policies to healthy people for much less than a typical employer group plan--
provided the carrier guarantees that policyholders can renew without a rate increase based on their
future illnesses.
•Few employers and employees know that federal law since 2006 requires all states to offer state-
guaranteed personal policies to employees with preexisting conditions that used to be covered by a
group plan (called HIPAA-eligibles). Forty (40) states go beyond this federal mandate making such
state-guaranteed personal coverage available to all their residents.
•The federal government now allows employers to reimburse employees, tax-free, for the premiums
paid on personal policies--provided that employers comply with HIPAA, ERISA, and IRS privacy and
non-discrimination rules. This new regulation can greatly reduce the after-tax cost of personal
policies for employees and employers. We ensure your company complies with the required
regulations.
Facts about Group Insurance you may not know.
•You lose coverage if you retire before age 65 (Medicare), or become ill and cannot work, or are
needed at home to take care of a sick child or spouse.
•The group renewal premium is increased each year based on the claims of your group—If you
have a small group and one person has a large claim, expect your rates to skyrocket the next year.
•In some states, if your company has less than 100 employees, your entire group could become
unaffordable, if just one person filed a major claim.
•Your employer selects your coverage, doctor network, and annual deductible and there are little or
no financial incentives to reward having a healthy lifestyle.
