Over the years we have worked with Health and Welfare funds, Insurance Companies and Health Plans around the country, providing Practice Management & Support and  Actuarial and Benefits Consulting.  You may recognize many of the companies we have worked with.  For example:

  • Assurant Health
  • California Public Employees Retirement System
  • Coventry Health Care
  • Humana
  • Mutual of Omaha

With each client we focus on their specific needs as we develop an actuarial solution.  Here are just a few examples of the services we provide and customer responses to those services:

Augusta Housing Authority — GASB 45 OPEB valuation

UHAS assisted client in implementation of GASB 45 reporting requirements. We worked closely with this client in data collection and assumption-setting and were pleased to develop an excellent relationship with this client. We educated and guided the client through the intricacies of GASB 45 and ultimately delivered the report on time under a tight deadline.

“I have looked the report over and it really looks good. I appreciate the work you did putting it together”..Thanks for working with us so effortlessly.”

Quad City Community Healthcare — Actuarial Support & Guidance         

This start-up heath plan engaged UHAS to assist in the development of rate manuals, reporting and reserve models for its individual and small group medical product lines.  Additional services provided include the development of annual rate certifications and participation on the plan management team, providing actuarial, financial, management and strategic advice.  We are considered an integral part of their business.   

“As veterans (50 + years) of the managed care and insurance industries, we have had scores of meeting and discussions with actuaries.  We have been delighted with the service and professional approach used by Karl Volkmar and members of his firm, United Health Actuarial Services.  Information and analysis is timely and current, well prepared, thoroughly documented and Karl has a unique talent to explain complicated theories and issues in a clear, concise format.  We believe he would be an asset to any company that needs actuarial work, particularly in the individual and small group arenas.”

CalPERS

CalPERS is a public program with substantial Board, member, constituent, and policyholder input and discussion; it is crucial that our consulting actuaries have the ability to complete quality technical analysis in a timely manner, but also be able to effectively communicate that information in multiple public venues. Karl Volkmar and the staff at UHAS have performed these duties admirably for a number of years. During this time they have had to deal with complex and difficult issues that involved significant actuarial and program design issues. They have always been accessible to staff, Board and constituents to explain and explore the issues associated with the program in order to provide appropriate information to assist the Board in its decision process.”
