New Individual Calculation for Symetra Dividend Program

Posted by: Meg Cipar    Mar 18, 2019

When you read about the 2019 Symetra-UBA Employer Experience Refund Program, you probably noticed something new. Starting this year, Symetra will calculate the dividend (AKA premium refund) on an individual basis versus the entire block. That means each case will stand on its own performance and renewal status, allowing your clients to maximize their profit-sharing opportunity.

SymetraLogo_webTo be eligible for the program, groups must be a UBA client at the time of payout. Cases must also renew to be eligible for potential profit share based on the results of the preceding policy period.

This proprietary Symetra-UBA stop loss admin agreement also includes competitive features such as: 

  • Accelerated reimbursements for catastrophic claims via our Preferred ASO Claim Advance.
  • Policies that mirror the plan document – no conflicting limitations or definitions.
  • No insurer right to change Specific or Aggregate stop loss premiums or factors during the policy year, except in the event of a plan design change.
  • No new lasers or increase on existing lasers at renewal.
  • No renewals declined due to poor claims experience.

For over a decade, Symetra has helped UBA bring creative and competitive solutions to Partner Firms and your clients. If you have questions about the Employer Experience Refund Program, talk with your Symetra stop loss representative.
