Gallagher Administrative Team

At Gallagher, we have experts with years of experience designing pools and cooperatives for a range of public sector clients. As a public sector organization you are uniquely situated to take advantage of a risk management pool.

An insurance pool is a multiple-member, risk-sharing arrangement where government organizations pool their funds together to finance an exposure, liability, risk or some combination of the three. Rather than purchasing insurance, employee benefits and risk management services through traditional insurance providers, pools and cooperatives share funds to procure services and insurance as a group.

As the LIRA program administrator, our team will provide risk assessment and loss control services, exposure data management, cost allocation, claims review, loss review, third-party claims administration, issuing certificates of insurance and contract review, and much more.
