Learn More About Our Health Insurance Options During a Virtual Q&A
We are pleased to offer two new health insurance options to our small business members. The first is an ACA-compliant group health benefits solution that offers premium savings from 10-20% compared to traditional carrier plans. The second, called Healthiest You by Teladoc, is a high-quality virtual care solution designed to serve businesses and their employees who cannot afford traditional health insurance.
Do you have questions about these plans? If so, join us and Mike Carraway of Acentria for a virtual Q&A on April 26, at 10 a.m. Please register to attend. Instructions for the Zoom meeting will be sent to you prior to the Q&A.
