What are Fully Insured Health Programs?
Fully Insured Health Programs is a health plan
that the employer purchases from a commercial insurer, providing coverage for
its employees. The employer pays premiums to the insurer, and the insurer
takes on the financial risk of providing coverage to their employees and
administering the plan. Some of these premiums are passed on to the employees
through payroll deductions.
If an employee has a medical claim, the insurer is responsible for paying the medical bills, not the employer. This is in contrast to self-insured health plans where the employer is responsible for paying.
