Eligible groups have until February 20 to complete Employer Size Survey
On January 28, Blue KC emailed certain groups our Employer Size Survey, which verifies employer size and reports medical loss ratio (MLR). Those groups include small groups with fewer than 60 members and a limited number of large groups.
Please encourage clients to complete the survey by February 20.
Here are a few things to know about the survey:
- Small groups must complete the survey to be eligible for an MLR rebate*.
- This is the first year we have combined the Employer Size Survey and MLR Survey into one survey; the surveys were combined at the request of brokers and groups.
- Groups will no longer receive a separate MLR Survey in June.
This survey is part of our compliance commitment related to the Affordable Care Act and Medicare secondary payor requirements. If a group does not complete the survey, Blue KC may change the premium rates of their Medicare-eligible employees to reflect Blue KC as the primary payer for coverage.
Please contact your Blue KC representative if you have questions about the survey.
*Completing the survey does not guarantee a rebate payment.
