Cost-Saving Programs

The Chamber offers a number of member-exclusive benefits to help you save money.
 

Group Health Insurance & Health Savings Accounts

The Chamber and Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield have teamed up to save you money on your group health insurance.  Through the ChamberSaver plan, businesses save money on health insurance – and not just on a few plans, but rather, on Anthem’s full range of health insurance offerings, including exciting new consumer-directed health plans.

Save money with members-only discounts
Chamber members who do not already have Anthem insurance can enjoy a 4 percent discount on group health insurance.

Flexible plans offer more choices
Your employees want more choices. You need to manage your budget. Anthem health plans can help you do both. How? With a full range of innovative, consumer-driven products (HSAs, HRAs and HIAs) as well as Anthem ByDesign^® buy-up plans. Anthem has a plan to fit your needs, and unlike some other chamber programs, you aren’t limited to just one or two pared-down plans; rather, through the ChamberSaver program, you can get a discounted rate on whichever of Anthem’s many plans you choose.

Get more for your money with Healthy Solutions
Go ahead. Compare Anthem’s Healthy Solutions to the competition’s programs. With Anthem, your employees get more. More comprehensive wellness and disease management programs. More online resources to help them make smart decisions about their care. More innovative tools that help them choose a hospital based on their specific needs.

Save time with MyAnthem™ for employers
MyAnthem gives you convenient online access to immediately view and update your group’s information. From adding and deleting employees and dependents to updating an employee’s address or checking the status of an employee’s claim, MyAnthem makes managing benefits easy.

The convenience of one-stop shopping
Take advantage of the administrative convenience of one-stop shopping for all of your health, prescription, dental, vision, life, disability and employee assistance (i.e., behavioral health) benefits.

Workers’ Compensation Group Rating
Members may receive discounted workers’ compensation premiums through a group-rating program administered by CompManagement, a Sedgwick CMS company, and sponsored by the North American Employers Council. Historically, groups administered by CompManagement have realized savings of 40 to 95 percent on individual company premiums. Typically participating Chamber members experience savings ranging from $150 to $14,000, depending on the type and size of the business.

Supplemental Insurance
AFLAC is the leading insurance carrier of voluntary insurance products at the workplace for employees, including accident policies, disability plans, full or supplemental dental coverage and additional life insurance. The AFLAC Chamber Plan is open to members who are self-employed, or for as few as one employee in a company to all employees. An additional benefit for Chamber member businesses is Section 125 Plan administration. Set-up is free, and the administrative service fee is waived for the first year. Contact Frieda Hoheisel, AFLAC agent, (899-0250, ext. 215).
