An Employee Health Insurance Program Designed Specifically for Illinois Public Entities

UMED

For Illinois public entities at the mercy of health insurance carriers, premiums and the cost of health care are out of control.

Endorsed by the United Counties Council of Illinois (UCCI) and serviced through IPMG, the ICRMT Employee Benefits Program gives program members a level of control in managing their health insurance costs and coverage that is difficult to find in today’s marketplace.

Service highlights

One Team Managing the Overall Health Experience

Better Oversight Through Integration

Exceptional Data for Better Decision-Making

Greater Predictability and Security

One, Integrated Team

Illinois public entities purchasing their employee health insurance and their workers’ compensation insurance through the Illinois Counties Risk Management Trust (ICRMT) enjoy the added benefit of one team managing their employees’ overall health experience.

This integrated approach allows for greater oversight and management of the injury and health conditions that drive costs, and also helps in identifying double billing by providers, limiting potential fraud, and reducing redundancy of expenses typically found in the traditional separate insuring approaches.
