Benefits built around Campbell County

One in five jobs is in mining

Campbell County carries about 24,657 covered jobs, and mining including oil and gas leads at roughly 4,790 — 19.4% of the county. The two largest coal mines in the United States are both here: North Antelope Rochelle and Black Thunder.

An industrial roster carries different utilization, different injury exposure and different occupational health requirements than a service roster. We design for the census you actually have.

Care that stays in Gillette

Campbell County Health operates a 90-bed hospital in Gillette and holds Wyoming's Area Trauma Hospital designation. It affiliated with UCHealth in 2021 and states plainly that the affiliation is not about sending patients away.

Local capacity matters to a benefits plan, because a network that covers the Gillette hospital covers most of what your people will use. We verify that before recommending anything.

Common questions

What Gillette employers ask.

Yes. Huhn Insurance is licensed across Wyoming, so Campbell County employers are inside our normal service area. We run reviews and renewals by phone and video, and we meet in person when a group wants that.

It depends on the carrier and the specific plan, and it is one of the first things we verify. Because the Gillette hospital handles most of what a Campbell County employee needs, its network status carries more weight here than in a lot of Wyoming.

It changes the rating and the design. Industry classification, injury exposure and shift patterns all affect what a carrier offers. We put the roster in front of multiple carriers rather than one, which is where the differences show up.

Smaller than most owners assume. Wyoming small-group rules generally start at one enrolled employee besides the owner, though carrier participation and contribution requirements vary. If a traditional group plan does not fit, an HRA arrangement often does.

Depending on the plan, we may be paid by the insurance carrier, by a client-paid fee, or by a mix of both. How we are paid is disclosed in writing up front, and if there is a fee paid by you we explain it before you move forward. Recommendations are based on fit.
