May a staff leasing company offer partially funded health plans?
A license holder may not sponsor a plan of self insurance for health benefits except as permitted by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (29 U.S.C. Section 1001 et seq.). (b) For purposes of this section, a “plan of self insurance” includes any arrangement except an arrangement under which an insurance carrier authorized to do business in this state has issued an insurance policy that covers all of the obligations of the health benefits plan. See Section 91.043 Health Benefit Plans.
