Type of Administration
This plan is administered by the IQVIA Benefits Committee. Certain administrative duties concerning COBRA are delegated by contract to Mercer Marketplace. Other administrative duties are performed by either administrative service companies who have entered into contracts with IQVIA or individual insurance companies.
Plan Funding
Benefits under the plan are funded by a combination of employer and employee contributions. Employees contribute at a fixed rate per month toward the cost of the plan through payroll deductions. Benefits are provided under a self-funded administrative service arrangement.
For self-funded plans, insurance companies or other companies act as administrators. These administrators do not collect premiums or insure benefits, but rely on the company or the plan to provide them with money to pay claims. The company or the plan pays each of these administrators a fee to administer the plan and make benefit payments.
