Compensation disclosed1 broker of record on fileAs reported on Form 5500 (Schedules A and C), U.S. Department of Labor.

This filing doesn't itemize broker compensation the way most peer employers do. That can be a clean fee arrangement — or pay baked into premium. Peer market rates for similar plans are below.

Benchmarked against: Manufacturing — Heavy · 1–100 employees · same industry, regional · n=16 employers

Peer disclosed broker cost: median $54.24 per participant per month · typical range $24.70–$85.27. This company's filings did not itemize an amount to place on that scale.

Your exact in-state peer group was below the 10-plan minimum, so the comparison broadens to same industry, regional within Manufacturing — Heavy.

Broker pay, employer-paid lines (2024)

Peer median $54.24 per participant per month

Broker pay as a share of insured premium: 0.0% (peer median 5.7%, the lowest disclosed broker pay among 16 comparable plans (your plan plus 15 peers)).

Without the 1 low-disclosure peer, this plan is the lowest disclosed broker pay among 15 comparable plans (your plan plus 14 peers).

Employer-paid $0 benchmarked for 2024 · $85,324 shown as filed, excluded as a likely filing error

Why excluded?

1 broker compensation line totaling $85,324 on the Form 5500 appears to be filing errors (a commission above 100% of the premium reported on that contract, or pay above $200 per participant per month or $50,000,000 on one line). We verified these amounts against the DOL EFAST publication — they are as filed by the plan sponsor, not an Unbrokered ingest error. Those lines are shown as filed and excluded from peer benchmarks and headline PEPM.

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.

Medical

Not comparable

Rate is above 40% of premium on a core line, or 100% on a voluntary line

Dental, Vision, and Life are not on this filing as their own contracts, so there is no peer rate to show for them.

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
Medicalfiled as “Health”	Blue Cross Blue Shield of Oklahoma	Not comparable	Rate is above 40% of premium on a core line, or 100% on a voluntary line	Rate is above 40% of premium on a core line, or 100% on a voluntary line

How the peer group for each line was built

Medical: n=606 contracts, Southwest, 1-100 covered lives

n = the number of peer contracts in that comparison group.

Everything in this table is from the 2024 filing. This contract is 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.

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. Not comparable: Rate is above 40% of premium on a core line, or 100% on a voluntary line
