How is your offering different from self-funded or fully-funded coverage options?
-
Level-funded health coverage is different from self-funded and fully-funded options mainly in how costs and risks are handled. With level-funded programs, employers pay a set monthly fee that covers expected costs, and any extra money can be saved or used for future expenses. On the other hand, self-funded options mean employers take on the financial risk of providing health benefits, which can cause costs to vary a lot. Fully-funded coverage requires employers to pay premiums to an insurance company, shifting all the risk to them. Level-funded coverage strikes a good balance between managing risk and keeping budgets predictable, making them a popular choice for many businesses.
-
Why should I choose a level-funded plan for my operation?
-
Choosing level-funded health coverage for your farm and employees has several benefits compared to self-funded and fully-funded options. First, level-funded options help you stick to a budget by allowing you to pay a fixed monthly fee that covers expected costs. This is important for farms, where income and expenses can vary. Plus, any unused funds can roll over to help cover future healthcare costs or reward your employees.
Level-funded programs also help manage risk. They let you avoid the high financial risks of self-funded options while keeping some control over costs. Unlike fully-funded coverage, where all risks go to an insurance company, level-funded options let you keep some risks and expenses in line with what your farm actually spends. This can save you money over time, making level-funded health coverage a smart choice for your farm and your employees.
-
When can I enroll in Medicare and a Medicare Supplement?
-
It’s a good idea to sign up three months before you turn 65.
-
What are the benefits of a Medicare Supplement policy?
-
With Medicare Supplement policies, you don’t have to stick to a network—you can see any doctor or hospital that accepts Medicare. They also provide coverage in any state while you’re traveling, and a Supplement can help cut your out-of-pocket costs down to zero.
-
How do I enroll in Medicare Part B?
-
If you’re not already receiving Social Security benefits, you can sign up for Medicare Part B when you become eligible for Medicare Part A. Just give the Social Security Administration a call or visit their website.
-
Should I buy a Medicare prescription drug plan if I don’t take any medications?
-
Definitely! It’s important to enroll in a Part D prescription drug plan as soon as you’re eligible for Medicare to avoid a late enrollment penalty.
