WHAT IS SELF-FUNDING?
Self-Funding is an alternative to the traditional, fully-insured approach to employee health benefit plans. In this arrangement, employers can choose which elements of a plan work best for their employee populations, budgets, risk tolerance and long-term goals. Self-funding with BPA is a way for independent organizations and businesses to have maximum control over their healthcare spending.
WHY SELF-FUND?
Considering self-funding? You’re on the path to improved savings and better quality of care for your members. 67% of workers are covered by self-funded health plans. Shifting to self-funding is a long-term strategy, and with help from BPA, you can ensure your efforts are a smart investment.
ADVANTAGES OF SELF-FUNDING WITH BPA
Greater Financial Control
Greater Financial Control
Employers with self-funded plans fund claims as they are incurred rather than through advance premium payments. This means you are in control of your claims money. Plus, BPA returns any unused claims reserves back to the organization at the end of the plan year.
Lower Costs
Lower Costs
Entering into a self-funded plan lowers the overall cost of the program. BPA’s self-funded plan designs include strategies that monitor the costs associated with quality of care, and encourage healthy lifestyles; all with the goal of reducing healthcare spend.
More Flexibility
More Flexibility
Self-funding allows for plan design flexibility, making it possible for employers to customize a health plan to address the specific needs of their workforce. Self-funded plans are also exempt from many state insurance laws that typically mandate certain benefits for fully insured plans.
Own Your Data
Own Your Data
Traditional plans don’t share access to your own claims data, making it difficult to assess where improvements can be made. At BPA, ongoing support and leading-edge tools for data analytics keep employers in the driver’s seat of their benefits plan.
