Identifying High Claimants

Updated: Apr 27, 2023

Taking a look at what a high claimant looks like and solutions to help manage claims.


What is a High Claimant?

A company has 75 employees on their pan. Their average cost is $10,000 per employee per month, totaling $750,000 per year. One of their employee's is diagnosed with cancer and is put on an intense treatment plan. At renewal, the one cancer diagnosis increased the company's premiums by $250,000 to $1 million or $13,300 per employee per year. This is a 33% increase from the previous year.
