Sherree L. Craig, CEBS, senior account executive in the Insured Benefits Division at Allen Insurance and Financial, has achieved an Advanced Self-Funding Certification from the National Association of Health Underwriters.

The NAHU Advanced Self-Funding Certification ensures knowledge of regulatory concerns, service model options, cost-containment strategies and underwriting concepts necessary for providing advice and direction on employer self-funded health plans.

Craig has been with Allen Insurance and Financial for 20 years. She works with businesses across Maine on their employee benefits offerings.

"Employers have limited options to control their own health plan expenses with an insurance company. Self-funding is a valuable tool to consider for a company’s health plan strategy," said Craig. "This certification allows me to better assist businesses who elect to self-fund their medical plans with using the most cutting edge cost-control techniques, while assuring that they are fulfilling their plan sponsor obligations.”
