Nu Skin Enterprises Employees: How Your Credit Score Influences Your Insurance Premiums

Healthcare Provider Update: Nu Skin Enterprises offers healthcare benefits to its employees through various providers, primarily collaborating with large national insurers. For 2026, Nu Skin Enterprises employees should prepare for potential healthcare costs to rise significantly. Record premium increases are anticipated, particularly within the Affordable Care Act marketplace; some states may see hikes exceeding 60%. Contributing factors include escalating medical costs, the potential expiration of enhanced federal premium subsidies, and aggressive rate increases from major insurers. As many companies consider shifting a greater share of healthcare expenses onto employees, Nu Skin's workers might face larger out-of-pocket costs, making it crucial for them to stay informed about benefit adjustments and optimize their healthcare plan selections.

As an employee of Nu Skin Enterprises you may find it interesting to know, one landmark study found that credit-based insurance scores are used by about 95 percent of all auto and home insurers in calculating the cost of insurance to individuals.

While the vast majority of insurance companies use credit-based insurance scores to help determine the price of insurance, it is banned in the states of Massachusetts, Hawaii, and California. Some states only allow it as a factor for property insurance like auto and homeowners insurance. Other states allow it to be used with any type of insurance.

Several Factors

Generally, an insurance company will use a credit-based insurance score as just one factor in its underwriting process. We'd also like to remind our Nu Skin Enterprises clients that other factors may be considered, depending on the type of insurance. For example, with auto insurance, other factors could include your zip code, the age of the drivers, the make, model and age of the car, and the number of miles you drive annually.

The use of credit scores to determine insurance rates is rooted in research that has shown individuals with lower credit scores had higher car insurance losses and higher claims payouts.

You can ask your insurance company if a credit-based insurance score was used to underwrite and rate your policy, and in which risk category you were placed.

For Nu Skin Enterprises employees who want to improve their credit-based insurance score, you should consider taking the same steps you would to improve your credit rating: make timely debt payments, clear up past disputes and keep credit card balances low.
