Manage
2010 Health Plan Expenses Now
In
the current economic climate, spending more than you have to for
health insurance doesn't make sense. As premiums continue to increase,
don't accept the status quo. There are ways to provide health insurance
while effectively managing your expenses.
These
are just a few of the strategies that Marsh has used to assist many
group practices to help reduce health insurance premiums.
High
Deductible Health Plans - Our physician clients, particularly
those over age 50, are taking advantage of this cost reduction strategy.
Significantly reduces premiums and enables physicians to open a
health savings account. Most physicians should review this strategy.
Rate
Adjustment Factors (RAF) - For groups of 6-50 employees, insurers
reduce the RAF for new business placing health insurance "on
sale."
Compare
- Rate competitiveness and plan design varies by insurer, type of
plan (PPO, HMO or HDHP) and location. We work with many insurers
to find the right plan design to meet your group health insurance
needs. There is a special discount available to CMA/SCMS members
through Blue Shield.
Health
Savings Accounts (2009 limits) - Contribution of up to $3,000
for individuals and $5,950 for families; plus another $1,000 if
you are between the ages of 55 and 64. Unused funds roll over
each to be used for future medical, dental and vision expenses.
HR
Know How - Provides the latest information on group benefit
plans and compliance issues for employers. Available at no cost
to CMA/SCMS members who purchase their group health insurance through
Marsh.
Why
not use one of your member benefits and let us help select a strategy
that works best for you? Call a Marsh Client Service Representative
at 800-842-3761 or email at CMACounty.Insurance@marsh.com
