Why
Have I Not Heard of This Before? Because all Insurance Brokers
are compensated approximately 10% of a company’s monthly dental premiums.
They choose not to present options that will KILL their commissions. With Self
Funding Dental, there is no Insurance Company… hence no Commission for
the Broker! Is there Significant
Risk in Self Funding? Unlike Health Insurance, all dental plans
have limits on Maximum coverage $500 to $2000. Statistics have shown
that 30% of employee will not visit a dentist in each calendar year. For those
that do go for basic and major dental work, once treatment is complete costs for
ongoing care are minimal. Where do
the Savings come from? The removed profits of the Insurance company
are your savings! Your company will pay actual claims, not broker commissions
or insurance company overhead and profits. Is
this a new strategy or experiment?
Self Funding was first introduced in 1982, called Direct reimbursement (DR). This
strategy has been employed for years by Government agencies to public companies.
Given the significant rise of dental insurance premiums, Self Funding Dental is
again the optimum choice. What Dental
Network Can I Use? Employees have the freedom to select any
dentist, however claims are paid on UCR (Usual Customary Rate) We query dentists
in your region and present the average rates that should be charged per procedure.
For example, if an employee decides to use a "Rock Star Dentist” and
a cleaning in that geographical area only costs $125, that is all such a dentist
will be paid. What are the
administrative requirements?
First we suggest you model the Self Funding
on the current plan in place. We will also work with you to evaluate an appropriate
dental plan, given your industry, location, and benefits budget. In addition,
we will annually evaluate your plan for optimization. Below are just two examples
