Group Benefits Premium Relief During COVID-19

With many health practitioners closing their offices due to pandemic restrictions, plan member use of dental benefits and some health benefits has declined.

Most insurance carriers are providing temporary premium relief for their non-refund insured customers. The premium credits apply to April and / or May premium and potentially beyond this. If you are an Administrative Services Only (ASO), this does not apply.

Below is a summary of the credits being offered. For full details, please refer to any communication from your insurance carrier or that you may have already received from Lane Quinn / RMA Benefits:

Insurance Carrier Dental Premium Credit Healthcare Premium Credit
Group Source Up to 60% Up to 10%
