Most Americans with employer-provided insurance are in self-funded plans, and that's been the case since at least 2010. Roughly 60% of members at Aetna, Anthem and Cigna are in ASO plans. More than 3 in 5 U.S. companies are self-insured, and self-insurance is almost universal among large employers. About 91% of people in companies with 5,000 or more workers were in self-insured plans in 2014, compared with 15% of people in companies with fewer than 200 workers, according to the Kaiser Family Foundation. Fifteen years ago, only 62% of workers in companies with 5,000 or more employees were in self-insured plans.
Employers are the most common sponsors of group insurance. The employer may contract with an insurance company, HMO, or PPO to provide for payment of direct health care expenses, or may hire a Third Party Administrator to manage claims and other aspects of a self-funded plan. These plans usually cover only nonoccupational (not work-related) injury or disease.
