Prior to the formation of DMI (pre 7/1/04) a number of the Wisconsin Technical Colleges (WTC) participated in a group insurance program. There was little flexibility beyond the standard coverage document and any minimal services offered were not targeted for the dynamic Technical College environment. The incumbent group program did not offer an active role by the insured in the control of “insurance dollars.”

Recognizing the volatility of the commercial insurance marketplace the sixteen (16) WTC Colleges collaborated on a feasibility study for moving insurance coverages to some “self-funded” alternative. State funding was decreasing and pressures to reduce property tax support tightened the operating budgets of the Colleges. The pre-DMI commercial insurance market was imposing annual rate increases of double digits. 

The Wisconsin Technical College System Districts formed a municipal mutual Insurance Company known as Districts Mutual Insurance (DMI). In its brief existence, DMI has garnered attention through publication in several nationally syndicated magazines as well winning several awards.
