1. 1 Defined Benefit Limited Medical Plans Limited Medical plans offer employers of all sizes the most cost-effective solutions to meet the healthcare challenges of today. The Association Insurance Cooperative, in conjunction with The American Worker Plans, the industry leading provider of these types of programs, can offer any employer group a multitude of options to meet their specific employee healthcare benefit objectives and needs.

2. The American Worker Plans, Providing Innovative Solutions Since 1992 The American Worker Plans was founded in 1992 to address the need of millions of uninsured working Americans that were not offered a major medical plan from their employer. In addition to providing health coverage for the uninsured, this concept has also proven to be an effective means for employers to accomplish their primary human resource objective: to recruit and retain the highest quality employees. The American Worker Plans was at the forefront of creating these innovative solutions, and continues to be a leading resource as Limited Medical plans continue adapt to better support employer’s budgetary requirements and changing human capital market conditions. Today, this concept has evolved to not only provide coverage for the uninsured, but also to provide supplemental first-dollar coverage for the most frequently utilized healthcare services as a buffer to ever-increasing major medical plan deductibles. This “GAP in coverage strategy” is rapidly becoming a very popular cost-containment strategy for many employers. Since the underlying first- dollar benefits can be offered either entirely employee-paid or with employer contributions, it allows each employer to meet its particular budgetary and employee compensation objectives. The American Worker Plans is a Managing General Agent for seven of the leading Limited Medical plan insurance carriers, and provides these solutions to many of the nation’s largest employers that incorporate Limited Medical in their employee benefits package. Our plans have proven over the past 19 years to be an innovative solution for all sizes of employers, and are able to meet employer’s objectives in the short or long-term. All of the plans offered by The American Worker Plans are Defined Benefit (Fixed-Indemnity) and are not subject to the new requirements of healthcare reform (PPACA).

5. 5 Benefit Utilization The greatest attribute of limited medical plans is providing access to basic health care services. The utilization graph below illustrates the typical distribution of medical claims experienced by our clients. Of significance is that Doctor Office Visits, Diagnostic Tests, X-Rays and Lab Work account for the vast majority of claims, nearly 70%. Furthermore, these plans typically pay for in excess of 80% of the expenses incurred. It is precisely these, and similar outpatient services, for which limited medical plans are designed to cover.

8. 8 Employee Benefit Communications Since a large portion of this type of health insurance is voluntary, or at least partially employee-paid, an effective employee communications strategy is a must for a program’s success. The American Worker develops customized enrollment materials for each of its clients, for both open enrollment as well as packets for newly hired employees. These materials are not limited to, but can include: Enrollment Guides Postcards Posters for the workplace Call Center enrollment (bi-lingual capabilities) Online enrollment at the employee and/or employer level These types of employee communications materials and systems are offered as part of all of our programs.
