Self-Funded Practice

A Health Plan That’s In Your Hands: The Self-Funded Option

Can a self-funded health plan work for you? First, get the right guidance. 

Self-funded health plans can be a cost-effective and extremely flexible approach to your company’s overall health insurance strategy. But this flexibility can also be complicated. Stop-loss coverage, third-party administrators, ERISA compliance – elements like these make self-funding your health plan significantly different than buying a benefit plan “off the shelf.”

M3’s dedicated self-funded practice can work with you to see if self-funding is an attractive option for your business.
