Employer-paid $39,892 benchmarked for 2018 · Voluntary $1,283 shown separately, compared by rate only

Showing 2018, the latest year with a complete peer group. A 2021 filing is on file and appears in broker history; it is not benchmarked yet.

Why 2018?

The figures above use 2018, the latest year we can compare with similar employers. A filing for 2021 is on file. 2021 reports only a token amount of broker pay, under $5,000. That is too small to compare with other employers. 2021 broker pay on file so far totals $4,188 across all lines, about 90% less than the $41,175 for 2018. Rows for 2021 stay in the broker history and stay out of the headline and the peer comparison.

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: the tightest available peer cell for each line. Full table below. How the national rates are built.

Medical

6.0%

No peer cell

Voluntary / worksite

Not comparable

Premium under $10,000 is too small to compare

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.

Dental, Vision, and Life are filed only inside a bundled multi-line contract, so there is no single-line rate to compare. The bundle's effective rate is in the table below.

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.

Analysis year 2018 — the same year as the headline figure and per-participant rate above. The 2021 filing reports only a token amount of broker pay, under $5,000.

Bundled and other contracts — no single-line peer comparison

A bundled contract covers two or more lines on one premium (for example Health + Dental). Its effective rate is the commission on the whole premium; it is shown for completeness and never compared with single-line peers, because the mix of lines inside the bundle sets the rate as much as the broker does.

Everything in this table is from the 2018 filing. These 3 contracts are a subset of the broker compensation disclosed for that year. The remainder sits on contracts with no premium reported or on Schedule C service-provider fees, which carry no contract rate. 2021 is not rated here. Its rows appear in Broker history above as filed — pick 2021 on the year chips there to see them.

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.

No peer cell met the minimum sample size for these lines, so rates are shown without a market position. 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. Contracts under $10,000 in premium are listed for completeness, with no rate or peer position.
