Texas Mutual Rolls Out Agent Network Support Program

Texas Mutual Insurance Company appreciates you for investing the time and resources to educate your clients about our workers’ compensation health care network option. The company recently introduced a program to recognize Texas-based agents for their efforts.

The program applies to existing policyholders choosing the network option between April 1, 2006 and March 31, 2007. For your efforts supporting the transition to networks, Texas Mutual will distribute to you an amount equal to approximately one-half percent of the policyholders’ premium that is associated with the remaining network term and the first renewal.

Please remember that a key role of the agent in this education process is providing employers with the network packet as soon as possible so that the employer can begin rolling out the network option to their employees.

You can request endorsements for existing, eligible clients any time during their policy period. The easiest way to get a network endorsement for an existing, eligible Texas Mutual® policyholder is through our online services at www.texasmutual.com.

You can also email your request to apps@texasmutual.com for new business or underwriting@texasmutual.com for endorsements; fax your request to (800) 359-0650; or mail your request to Texas Mutual Insurance Company, Attn: Underwriting, P.O. Box 12058, Austin, TX 78711-2058.

“Texas Mutual Insurance Company and the agent community have a common goal,” said Ken Lauber, vice president of field operations at Texas Mutual Insurance Company. “We want to meet our mutual clients’ needs. That’s why we encourage agents to tell employers about the advantages of our network option.”

Employers who choose the network option have access to occupational health care providers and case management services that help injured workers get back on the job. Most also receive a 12 percent annual network premium discount.

With the expanded service areas, we expect to see agents steering more of their clients toward our network option. For a map of the network service areas, click here.
