Michigan University Self-Insurance Corporation

How it works
- Universities fund the first layer of loss in the form of retention or deductible.
- Michigan University Self-Insurance Corporation funds the second layer of loss and buys excess insurance to cover the member institutions from catastrophic losses.
- We get a better deal on excess premiums through group purchases.
- With no losses, we get paid premiums returned in the form of a dividend.
- Equity also accumulates so that investment income can offset both current losses and future premiums.
