Benefits declared on the Form 5500 main form (✓ = also has a Schedule A insurance contract; otherwise the benefit is funded out of plan assets or via a Schedule C TPA).
The plan reports several different headcounts depending on which form you read. Each one measures a different slice of the population.
| Active participants | 118 | Currently employed and enrolled or eligible. |
| Retired/separated still receiving benefits | 76 | Continuation coverage (COBRA, retiree health). |
| Total participants (= "Plan participants" tile) | 194 | Active + retired/separated + beneficiaries. No dependents. |

Why the numbers differ. Form 5500 line 6 counts employees + retirees + beneficiaries; no dependents. Schedule A persons-covered counts everyone enrolled, including spouses and children, so it usually exceeds line 6 by 30-60% on a working-age workforce. The medical row is normally the broadest single line because it has the highest take-up; dental/vision/life often dip below it. Stop-loss / reinsurance contracts sometimes report the carrier's full underwriting pool rather than this filer's headcount; the row is shown for transparency but shouldn't be read as "people in this plan."
Broker comp is under 1% of premium on a >$1M plan. Plan may be flying solo or paying a flat fee — consultant sales target.
Top carrier holds >85% of premium. If that carrier hits a rate increase, the entire plan moves.
