Industry Leader
United American has been a leading writer of individual Medicare Supplement insurance since Medicare was enacted in 1966. Beginning in the 1990s, United American developed an innovative portfolio of group product solutions known as Group Retiree Health plans.
Group Retiree Health plans supplement Medicare’s coverage, but are offered to retired employees/members and spouses of qualifying employer and union group sponsors. The result has been hundreds of unique plan designs and hundreds of retiree groups, many of which have been United American clients for 30 years.
Group Retiree Health Plans
United American’s Group Retiree Health plan approach is an attractive alternative supplemental health insurance option for employer and union groups with post-retirement medical liabilities. We offer competitive solutions to provide retiree healthcare coverage with benefits to supplement Medicare that when combined provide benefits very similar to active employee plans.
Our group retiree health plans help employer and union groups manage future liabilities and enhance comprehensive benefits to Medicare-eligible retirees. Our group retiree health plans are customizable and allow employers and unions to provide exceptional healthcare coverage.
Our goal is to design a custom insurance plan for your group’s retirees to help supplement the benefits of Medicare. We have plans with deductibles, coinsurance, doctor office visit and ER visit copay riders, in addition to the standardized benefits of a Medicare Supplement insurance policy, which can help lower monthly premiums. Our plans accurately coordinate with the benefits of Medicare and are automatically revised according to annual Medicare changes.
In addition to the items outlined above, here are some other benefits of United American’s Group Retiree Health Plans:
- Group benefits with individual service
- Experienced, reliable insurer
- Flexible, custom-built benefit programs
