How Self-Funding Helps Employers Navigate 3 Macrotrends
The last few years for Roundstone have been exciting -- we’ve managed a consistent nearly 30% growth rate, driven by the steadily increasing demand of the market. Employers are feeling the pain of spiking insurance premiums, and the self-funded stop loss captive offers a viable and affordable solution.
Our recently published article examines 3 macrotrends that will spur more employers to adopt the self-funded model: Medical price litigation, the rise of expensive gene therapy drugs, and the cost of hospital inflation in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Case Study
How We Didn't Raise Employee Contributions for 8 Years
At Roundstone, we take our own medicine – we self-fund our employee benefits program on the same Captive we offer our clients. And for the last 8 years running, we haven’t had to increase employees' contributions. What’s more, we have been able to stabilize healthcare expenses, a feat that defies the industry trend — all while growing the company and providing tailored, high-quality benefits to our employees.

How Does a Captive Provide Savings and Security?
Under a self-funded stop-loss captive, you’re not in it alone. A Captive levels risk so high-cost claims are spread out evenly among the pool to ensure self-funding remains safe, predictable, and affordable. It essentially gives you the same risk predictability as a Fortune 500 company, even if you only have 25 employees.
Check out our new video on how the Captive provides savings, security, and predictability so small to midsize companies can safely self-fund their health benefits.

Why Rising Healthcare Costs Tank Employee Raises
Health insurance costs have long outpaced wage growth. In fact, families with workplace health insurance have lost about $125,000 in earnings over the past three decades due to rising premiums eating up their paychecks, according to a new JAMA Network Open study.An article in Axios explores how this significantly impacts wage growth. Raises provide little employee incentive when additional pay is simply eaten up by rising insurance costs. Fortunately, self-funding provides employers an affordable alternative so employees can pay less and still get great benefits.
