Broker pay as a share of insured premium: 32.3% (peer median 13.9%, the highest disclosed broker pay among 10 comparable plans (your plan plus 9 peers)).
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.

Benefits covered (latest filing)
From the Form 5500 welfare benefit codes — the authoritative list of what the plan covers, including medical (health).
Disclosure opacity
What this filing doesn't show
This filing discloses no compensation on a health or stop-loss contract for 2025 — the plan's largest lines are absent from the public record. That is typical for self-funded plans, not reassuring: 53% of self-funded health plans with 100+ participants disclose the same — nothing (42K plans reviewed, 2024 filings). How we count this. The compensation still exists — under ERISA Section 408(b)(2), it must be disclosed in writing to the plan fiduciary on request.

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 lines below are the insured ancillary coverages — dental, vision, life, disability. Self-funded medical broker or consultant fees paid from plan assets are reported on Schedule C — shown below, tagged Sch. C. What Schedule C does not capture is advisor pay the employer makes from its own corporate funds instead of plan assets, which is not reportable, so the filed figure can be lower than what an advisor is paid in total.
Broker identity on this page is limited for public viewers. Sign in with your work email or share your plan basics for the full breakdown on your company.
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.
| Benefit line | Contract | Rate | vs. peers | Position |
|---|
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.
| Covers | Contract | Effective rate | vs. peers |
|---|---|---|---|
| Life + Short-term disability + Long-term disability | Hartford Life and AccidentPlan 505 | 16.7% | Bundled; no single-line peer |
| Dental + Vision + Life + Short-term disability + Long-term disability | GuardianPlan 505 | 16.5% | Bundled; no single-line peer |
Everything in this table is from the 2025 filing. These 2 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.
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.
