Self-funded medical. This figure is commissions on the insured ancillary lines (life, disability, dental, vision, stop-loss). A self-funded employer's medical advisor is typically paid a fee outside these filings, so total broker pay is usually higher than the figure shown.
Broker commission rate by benefit line
What the broker earns on each insured line, as a share of that line's own premium — not a share of total broker pay, and not what the coverage cost. Peers for these tiles: same region, similar covered lives. Full table below. How the national rates are built.
Voluntary / worksite
5.3%
Peer median 20.0%
Below peer rangeLong-term disability
0.3%
Peer median 9.0%
No commission on this contractVoluntary / worksite premium is typically paid by employees through payroll deduction, so commission on those lines comes out of employee money rather than company money.
Dental, Vision, and Life are not on this filing as their own contracts, so there is no peer rate to show for them.

Broker history
Benefit lines covered by year — broker identity limited on public pages
Medical here is self-funded. The employer pays its own health claims (usually through a TPA), so there's no insurance contract for medical and it never appears on Schedule A. The itemized coverages in this filing are the insured ancillary lines — dental, vision, life, disability. Schedule C captures advisor pay two ways: paid directly from plan assets, or received indirectly from a carrier or vendor in connection with the plan. This plan has no Schedule C on file — so any advisor compensation beyond those ancillary lines isn't captured in this filing.

Commission rates by benefit line
Each insured contract on the filing, with the broker's commission as a share of that contract's own premium. Premium is what was paid to the carrier for the coverage; only the commission column is broker pay.

How the peer group for each line was built
- Voluntary / worksite: n=132 contracts, Midwest, 2501-10000 covered lives
- Long-term disability: n=397 contracts, Midwest, 501-2500 covered lives
n = the number of peer contracts in that comparison group.
Everything in this table is from the 2025 filing. These 4 contracts are a subset of the broker compensation disclosed for that year. The remainder sits on bundled multi-line contracts, contracts with no premium reported, or Schedule C service-provider fees, none of which carry a comparable single-line rate.
Who funds this. Voluntary / worksite premium is typically paid by employees through payroll deduction, so commission on those lines comes out of employee money rather than company money.
Peer comparison here is contract-level: each line is matched to single-line contracts covering a similar number of lives. The geography and size band come from that cell's generated scope label. That is a different group from the plan-level peer set, which compares employers on total broker cost per employee, so the two sample sizes are not expected to agree. The national table on the research page includes every single-line contract on that benefit line. Company pages use the tightest cell with at least 10 contracts — region and size when those exist, otherwise national. The two medians answer different questions, so they are not expected to match. A rate on bundled multi-line premium is not comparable to a single-line rate, so bundled contracts are never given a peer position. A near-zero rate on a large premium usually means the broker is paid elsewhere (through a bundled contract, a Schedule C fee, or commission on other lines), so no market position is shown for that contract.
