Good Food Store Inc.

Missoula, MT · Form 5500 filing, plan year 2024

Both kinds The Good Food Store Group Health Insurance · 135 people

This employer has both kinds of coverage. The company on your insurance card decides which rules apply to you.

How we know · medium confidence
  • The filing lists stop-loss insurance (United States Fire). Employers buy stop-loss only when they pay claims out of their own money.
  • Medical insurance bought from Principal Life is on file, covering about 0 people.
  • The filing says all benefits are paid through insurance contracts.
  • Medical insurance is on file, but the plan also pays benefits from the employer's own money, so some options are likely self-funded.
  • The insured options cover only about 0% of the 135 participants, so most people in this plan are in the self-funded part.

Not counted

  • The Good Food Store Health Reimbursement Arrangement (87 people): The plan name shows a spending account or employee assistance program, not medical coverage.
  • The Good Food Store Flexible Spending Account (22 people): The plan name shows a spending account or employee assistance program, not medical coverage.

Double-check in 30 seconds: “Self-funded”, “administered by” or “ASO” on your card or plan summary means self-funded. “Insured by” or “underwritten by” means insured.
