Scope
This web site is owned and operated by Mercer Health & Benefits Administration LLC (“Mercer Marketplace 365” or “Mercer”). By accessing and using this web site, you are agreeing to these terms and conditions. We reserve the right to change these conditions as we deem necessary without notice to you.
Mercer’s Role and Compensation
Mercer Marketplace 365, a service provided by Mercer Health & Benefits Administration LLC, provides retirees with services and education as they convert from employer-sponsored group medical insurance to individualized plans. Designed and structured based on interviews and interactions with thousands of retirees, Mercer takes its clients step by step through the process of comparing, evaluating, and selecting individual health insurance plans. Mercer is an insurance broker and not an insurance carrier. Mercer does not fund any claims or coverage, recommend any particular coverage for you, make any representation or warranty that any coverage you obtain through Mercer Marketplace 365 is best aligned with your own needs, or serve as a fiduciary to you or your employer. There may be coverage options available to you other than those offered through Mercer. You are responsible for independently ensuring that your selection of coverage through Mercer is appropriate for you.
In accordance with industry custom, Mercer’s compensation for these services consists of commissions paid by insurers that are calculated as a percentage of the insurance premiums those insurers collect for the coverage you obtain, or a fixed dollar amount per subscriber. The rate of compensation paid to Mercer is generally fixed at the time of placement or renewal, and may vary among insurers or among the products offered by an insurer. In certain instances, Mercer may also be paid supplemental commissions in addition to base commissions. These supplemental commissions may also be paid at a rate that is fixed at placement or renewal, or be paid at a rate of commission that may change following placement or renewal based upon factors such as the volume, growth and/or retention of Mercer’s book of business with the insurer or service provider. Mercer may also receive additional monetary and non-monetary compensation from insurers or others that includes payment for marketing or technology related expenses, and other service fees.
Upon your request, additional information is available from Mercer regarding its role and compensation from insurers. You may obtain this information by contacting Mercer at 1-888-434-1144.
Insurance Terms and Conditions
Insurance obtained through Mercer Marketplace 365 is provided by a separate and independent insurance carrier under terms and conditions exclusively set forth in the insurance contract issued by your insuring carrier. Among other items, these insurance terms and conditions define one’s eligibility for coverage, available benefits, coverage duration, claims processes and any other conditions that must be satisfied to obtain and maintain coverage. You should refer to the terms and conditions issued by each carrier and service provider for a complete description of coverage or service, and make your own independent judgment as to whether this coverage or service satisfies your insurance needs. As these carriers and service providers are separate and independent from Mercer Marketplace 365, Mercer Marketplace 365 is not responsible for any carrier’s or service provider’s failure to provide coverage or service, including but not limited to any failure resulting from the carrier’s or service provider’s current or future financial condition or solvency.
Any insurance or service you obtain through Mercer Marketplace 365 is provided based upon information supplied by, or on behalf of, you. You should accurately and completely provide any information required. A failure to provide complete or accurate information could result in a voiding of coverage or denial of claims. Mercer is not responsible for the accuracy or completeness of the information you or your representative supplies.
Claims Submission
To the extent you are using Mercer Marketplace 365 to review or submit claims, you agree and acknowledge that you have reviewed your plan terms, claims submitted are eligible for reimbursement under the plan, and claims may be denied in whole or in part as a result of your failure to submit complete or accurate information, including any supporting documentation that may be required or requested by the plan.

Please read and review these terms carefully.
Scope
This web site is owned and operated by Mercer Health & Benefits Administration LLC (“Mercer Marketplace 365” or “Mercer”). By accessing and using this web site, you are agreeing to these terms and conditions. We reserve the right to change these conditions as we deem necessary without notice to you.
Mercer’s Role and Compensation
Mercer Marketplace 365, a service provided by Mercer Health & Benefits Administration LLC, provides retirees with services and education as they convert from employer-sponsored group medical insurance to individualized plans. Designed and structured based on interviews and interactions with thousands of retirees, Mercer takes its clients step by step through the process of comparing, evaluating, and selecting individual health insurance plans. Mercer is an insurance broker and not an insurance carrier. Mercer does not fund any claims or coverage, recommend any particular coverage for you, make any representation or warranty that any coverage you obtain through Mercer Marketplace 365 is best aligned with your own needs, or serve as a fiduciary to you or your employer. There may be coverage options available to you other than those offered through Mercer. You are responsible for independently ensuring that your selection of coverage through Mercer is appropriate for you.
In accordance with industry custom, Mercer’s compensation for these services consists of commissions paid by insurers that are calculated as a percentage of the insurance premiums those insurers collect for the coverage you obtain, or a fixed dollar amount per subscriber. The rate of compensation paid to Mercer is generally fixed at the time of placement or renewal, and may vary among insurers or among the products offered by an insurer. In certain instances, Mercer may also be paid supplemental commissions in addition to base commissions. These supplemental commissions may also be paid at a rate that is fixed at placement or renewal, or be paid at a rate of commission that may change following placement or renewal based upon factors such as the volume, growth and/or retention of Mercer’s book of business with the insurer or service provider. Mercer may also receive additional monetary and non-monetary compensation from insurers or others that includes payment for marketing or technology related expenses, and other service fees.
Upon your request, additional information is available from Mercer regarding its role and compensation from insurers. You may obtain this information by contacting Mercer at 1-888-434-1144.
Insurance Terms and Conditions
Insurance obtained through Mercer Marketplace 365 is provided by a separate and independent insurance carrier under terms and conditions exclusively set forth in the insurance contract issued by your insuring carrier. Among other items, these insurance terms and conditions define one’s eligibility for coverage, available benefits, coverage duration, claims processes and any other conditions that must be satisfied to obtain and maintain coverage. You should refer to the terms and conditions issued by each carrier and service provider for a complete description of coverage or service, and make your own independent judgment as to whether this coverage or service satisfies your insurance needs. As these carriers and service providers are separate and independent from Mercer Marketplace 365, Mercer Marketplace 365 is not responsible for any carrier’s or service provider’s failure to provide coverage or service, including but not limited to any failure resulting from the carrier’s or service provider’s current or future financial condition or solvency.
Any insurance or service you obtain through Mercer Marketplace 365 is provided based upon information supplied by, or on behalf of, you. You should accurately and completely provide any information required. A failure to provide complete or accurate information could result in a voiding of coverage or denial of claims. Mercer is not responsible for the accuracy or completeness of the information you or your representative supplies.
Claims Submission
To the extent you are using Mercer Marketplace 365 to review or submit claims, you agree and acknowledge that you have reviewed your plan terms, claims submitted are eligible for reimbursement under the plan, and claims may be denied in whole or in part as a result of your failure to submit complete or accurate information, including any supporting documentation that may be required or requested by the plan.
