Healthcare Provider Update: Healthcare Provider for TopBuild TopBuild Corporation typically partners with major insurers to provide health benefits to its employees. As of now, TopBuild collaborates with UnitedHealthcare for its healthcare coverage options, facilitating access to a wide range of health services for its workforce. Potential Healthcare Cost Increases in 2026 Looking ahead to 2026, healthcare costs are projected to surge significantly, primarily driven by anticipated record hikes in Affordable Care Act (ACA) premiums. With some states expecting increases upwards of 60%, nearly 92% of ACA enrollees could see their out-of-pocket premiums rise by over 75, driven by the expiration of enhanced federal subsidies and increasing medical costs. Insurers are grappling with escalating healthcare expenses, leading to a perfect storm of financial strain on consumers as they navigate the impending marketplace changes. As a result, strategies to mitigate these costs will be essential for families and individuals in the coming year. Click here to learn more

Most TopBuild employees have already heard of the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, or FAFSA, if they or someone they know has plans to attend a college, career school, or university. Last year, around 70% of families submitted a FAFSA to the Department of Education to secure financial assistance. But what many prospective and current students may overlook are the various federal grants awarded to students in need each year. 

Granted value

Most federal grants, unlike loans, function as sources of funding. There are some exceptions, though. For example, if a student is awarded a grant, but withdraws from the program in which they’re enrolled, they may be required to pay back all or a portion of that grant.

Know your grants

The Department of Education offers multiple aid packages as part of the Federal Student Grant Program and all TopBuild employees should be aware of them. The following four are granted most often, and each has different requirements for eligibility. The information below applies to the 2023-2024 academic year:

  • Federal Pell Grants  - With a maximum award of $6,895, Pell Grants are reserved for undergraduate students who have exceptional financial need and have not earned a bachelor’s, graduate, or professional degree yet.
  • Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants (FSEO)  - FSEO Grants award a maximum of $4,000 to those who demonstrate exceptional need and have not yet earned a bachelor’s or graduate degree. FSEO Grants also give priority to Pell Grant recipients over other applicants.
  • Iraq and Afghanistan Service Grants  - These grants award a maximum of $6,895, and they’re only for students whose parent or guardian served in a branch of the U.S. Armed Forces and died while serving in Iraq or Afghanistan after the events of 9/11.
  • Teacher Education Assistance for College and Higher Education (TEACH) Grants  - TEACH Grants award a maximum of $4,000, and they’re reserved for students who are enrolled in teaching preparation programs and agree to teach for a minimum of 4 years at the elementary or secondary school level in a high-need field.
