Read the full original article from [Benefits Pro](http://www.benefitspro.com/2016/12/28/the-case-for-self-funding-at-small-and-mid-sized-b?slreturn=1484085696). In an attempt to balance employees' interests with company profitability, "company owners facing higher healthcare costs are putting more pressure on their human resources staff to find a tenable long-term solution. The revolution in health care is being spurred by self-insurance (or self-funding, partial self-funding, or partial-self insurance), something large businesses have been doing for decades. The big change today is that small and midsized companies can use this model to save money and increase services, with little or no risk." **Learn more about using the partial self-funding model to save money and increase services in Nonstop's Quick Guide to Partial Self-Insurance:** **[![Download the Guide Now! ](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/569324/fe293b1b-64bd-4429-9ef1-d27bd8f7f53c.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/569324/fe293b1b-64bd-4429-9ef1-d27bd8f7f53c)** The information and materials herein are provided for general information purposes only and are not intended to constitute legal or other advice or opinions on any specific matters and are not intended to replace the advice of a qualified attorney, plan provider or other professional advisor.
