January 2026: What just happened in stop loss?
Wednesday, 21 January, 2026

The January 2026 stop loss cycle delivered a market unlike anything we’ve seen in years. Escalating medical inflation, a surge in catastrophic claims for cancer and other conditions collided with carriers under pressure to hit pricing targets—creating one of the most volatile years to date. But the bigger question is: what does it mean for the rest of the year and 2027? In this bonus episode of the Working Forward podcast, members of our stop loss leadership team are joined by Ron Peck, Esq., Chief Legal Officer at The Phia Group, and Mehb Khoja, Chief Growth Officer at BCS Financial Corporation, to unpack what happened and explore what’s next for brokers, carriers, and self-funded groups.
