Employee
Satisfaction
Self-funded plans, like those from HealthEZ, include support that takes the burdens of healthcare management off employees. So they can focus on work and life, not health insurance hassles.
SELF-FUNDING
Health plans where
employers call the shots.
People have learned to expect high costs and low satisfaction from traditional health plans. Self-funding flips the script. It’s a model that helps companies deliver benefits to workers while holding on to their savings.
What are self-funded benefits?
With fully-insured health benefits, companies pay ever-rising premiums to insurers, no matter how healthy their workers are. By contrast, self-funding companies directly assume the cost of their employee health plans, paying for care when it’s needed, and keeping the money when it’s not.
That has big benefits for small and medium-size companies looking to increase quality and control spending.
