About Us
Aegis - the protective shield of Athena - goddess of war and wisdom
Aegis Risk was created to provide dedicated and knowledgeable focus on those aspects of a benefit program with a more distinctive orientation towards risk management - particularly medical stop loss and its related financial management.
While your existing benefits consultant or broker interacts with such coverage on an infrequent basis - at Aegis Risk, it's our focus.
In fact, mistakes related to medical stop loss placements are one of the most common causes of Errors & Omission claims against leading benefits consulting firms. Many of their consultants simply don't know the coverage. In response, some firms have developed stop loss 'purchasing pools' run by a few specific consultants - however, not for the stated benefit of reducing their client's premiums, but instead to manage their own firm's exposure to E & O claims. At Aegis Risk, stop loss is a dedicated expertise, not a loss control initiative.
An Independent Consultative Approach
Aegis Risk was founded in 2005 by Ryan Siemers, a health and welfare benefits professional with 20 years experience in health plan underwriting and benefits consulting. Prior to the formation of Aegis Risk, he was a senior strategy consultant with Hewitt Associates, where he advised employers ranging from 2,000 lives to Fortune 100 organizations with greater than 100,000 employees.
Further partnership with other veterans of large firm consulting provides a team of advisors for Aegis Risk to leverage for its clients. Together, Aegis Risk provides the detailed, intelligent analysis large employers expect, but in a creative manner often missing from the large firm advisors.
Compensation
Our plan year services are typically compensated via fully disclosed plan commissions or mutually agreed upon fees-for-service.
