Frequently Asked Questions

What's the Difference between ASO and Traditional Insurance?

With ASO arrangements, employers self-fund their benefit plans and pay actual claims costs plus administrative fees, while traditional insurance involves paying fixed premiums to transfer risk to the insurance carrier who covers all claims.

What Services do ASO Companies Typically Provide?

ASO companies handle claims processing and adjudication, provider network access and management, member customer service, benefit administration, regulatory reporting, utilization management, and often wellness programs and data analytics.

Who can use ASO Arrangements?

ASO arrangements are most commonly used by larger employers (usually 100+ employees) who want more control over their benefit costs, access to detailed claims data, and flexibility in plan design while having sufficient resources to absorb financial risk.

What are the Main Advantages of Using an ASO Company?

Key benefits include potential cost savings when claims are lower than expected, access to detailed claims and utilization data, greater flexibility in plan design, elimination of insurance carrier profit margins, and ability to retain unused premium dollars.

What Risks do Employers Face with ASO Arrangements?

Employers assume financial responsibility for all claims costs, face potential cash flow challenges with large or unexpected claims, and may need stop-loss insurance to protect against catastrophic losses while still maintaining administrative and regulatory compliance responsibilities.

How do ASO Companies Charge for Their Services?

ASO companies typically charge administrative fees on a per-employee-per-month (PEPM) basis or percentage of claims, plus potential setup fees, with costs generally lower than fully-insured premiums since they exclude risk charges and carrier profit margins.
