If Rx standalone Stop Loss premium = 2-3% of overall Rx spend and the savings on medical stop loss premium is 5%-10% when carving out the Rx program, what is the net difference?
Here is an example of a small 350 life case we picked at random assuming maximum stop loss discount on medical (10%) and maximum savings on Rx (3%):
.10 X $180,000 (SL) – .03 X $350,000 (Rx) = net annual premium savings of $7,500 for a savings of $1.79 pepm.
Seems like a whole lot of work for a small amount of money in this instance. Try this exercise on your book of business and see if it makes sense for your clients.
