Small Businesses Consider Stop-Loss Plans

Aug. 14, 2012

"There's a reason most small businesses -- those with 50 or fewer employees -- don't directly pay the health care expenses of their employees -- it's too risky. Instead, small companies that offer employee health coverage purchase group policies from health carriers, allowing the insurer to assume the risk. But some insurers and the brokers that sell on their behalf are trying to change that, wooing smaller companies with 50 or fewer employees into the universe of 'self-insured' businesses by offering ancillary stop-loss policies, which critics say is meant to sidestep federal health care reform measures and could result in higher health care premiums."
