Baseball may have the title, but if you ask me, insurance deserves a place in the conversation for America’s favorite pastime...Stay with me!
Like baseball, insurance is about teamwork—brokers, stop-loss carriers, TPAs, PBMs, point solutions, and employers all playing a role in protecting what matters most. It requires strategy, adaptability, and a commitment to success. The best teams (and benefits programs) aren’t just built overnight; they’re cultivated through trust, experience, and a shared goal of what success looks like.
And just like stepping up to the plate in a big moment, self-funding is about preparation and execution. Whether it’s a curveball in the form of a regulatory change or a fastball of rising costs, those who stay ahead of the game are the ones who thrive.
Success in self-funding isn’t just about winning the short-term battles—it’s about building a sustainable approach that works season after season. The industry’s best players understand that consistency, adaptability, and a strong game plan are what set them apart. Those who invest in smart strategies today will be the ones still standing when the game is on the line.
So, as we kick off another season, both on the field and in business, let’s play to win for ourselves and our teammates!
