Beyond Traditional Funding: Innovative Approaches to Employee Benefits

The majority of companies in the U.S. are overpaying for their health insurance. Much of that is due to the companies themselves selecting a suboptimal strategy for paying for benefits. You may have heard of self-funding, but many don’t realize there’s an entire range of options between being fully-insured and the other end of the spectrum. But sorting through all the options is nothing short of confusing and if you combine that with the heavy jargon of the insurance industry it becomes a daunting task to even understand the landscape.
