Do you provide healthcare coverage to your employees? Are you looking for a plan that may be more cost efficient?
Has the cost of insurance kept you from offering healthcare insurance to your employees?
Announcing a new option for MOV Chamber members to consider!
We are proud to announce that WV small businesses with 2-99 employees who are members in good standing with the MOV Chamber of Commerce can now access a new insurance program to provide healthcare coverage to your employees. This program is structured as a multiple-employer welfare association (MEWA) and was put together by the Wheeling Chamber and The Health Plan (THP). Because of our collegial relationship with the Wheeling Chamber, the MOV Chamber and other Chambers in the state have been approved to offer this program to their members too!
We will hold an informational meeting on Friday, April 13 from 10:30am - 11:30am at the Judge Black Annex, 317 Market Street, Parkersburg. Our role as a Chamber is to share news of this great member benefit to you and to get you in contact with one of our insurance members who are licensed to broker this plan to small businesses.
Representatives from THP and our
THP licensed member brokers* will join us at the informational meeting to explain the Chamber Health Plan and answer any questions you might have. (*Our THP licensed member brokers are Schwendeman Agency, Waters Insurance, Kiger Insurance and Mark Snapp & Associates.) In addition, the Schwendeman Agency has years of experience with MEWAs in Ohio and will provide background about this type of healthcare insurance option at the informational meeting.
The Health Plan and the Wheeling Chamber have already enrolled more than 1,000 people into this plan. THP officials said the benefits plan could result in 20-30 percent annual savings for employers who provide employees with benefits.
We know there may be scenarios where your current plan is the best option - we are excited to simply have another option for you to consider. And for our members who have not been able to provide health insurance - equally we are excited to offer this option for you to consider.... More >><< Less
