May 6, 2024 – Hamilton, New Jersey – Berkley Accident and Health, a Berkley Company, is proud to announce the recipients of the 2024 Berkley Edge Excellence in Health Risk Management certification. This certification is given to Berkley Accident and Health’s Stop Loss Group Captive programs that show outstanding achievement in health risk management. Programs are evaluated on their health risk strategy and efforts to improve health care and lower costs for their employees and their health plan. The certification began in 2024, with 12 inaugural recipients announced at the 2024 Berkley Captive Symposium.
Stop Loss Group Captive programs are a way for small and midsize companies to provide affordable, high-quality health benefits. Rather than buy traditional health insurance, these companies take control of their health costs by self-funding their benefits with Stop Loss protection and then joining together to share risk in a Group Captive arrangement.
“We were pleased to have so many programs achieve their Excellence in Health Risk Management certification this year,” said Brad Nieland, President and CEO of Berkley Accident and Health. “It really speaks to the success of the program sponsors and members that are leading the way with high-quality and sustainable benefit strategies.”
To become certified, Captive program sponsors must provide detailed information about their health risk management efforts, including member engagement and collaboration, use of independent TPAs or transparent PBMs, ability to carve-out special solutions, leveraging program size and scale to negotiate risk management solution pricing, engagement with Berkley Edge cost-containment services, and additional criteria. Programs that satisfy Berkley Accident and Health’s stringent criteria receive the Excellence in Health Risk Management certification.
We would like to congratulate the following programs on their 2024 certification:
