Covenant Choice: Tailored Health Plans for Faith-Driven Employers
Monday Sep 30, 2024
Monday Sep 30, 2024
In today's rapidly changing healthcare landscape, small- and mid-market private employers often feel pressured to compromise on their health plans. They accept one-size-fits-all solutions that don't align with their values, thinking they have no other option.
But what if they do?
Meet Ericka McPherson, Esq., executive director of Covenant Choice. Her organization offers a transformative alternative that gives even small-sized employers the same control, transparency, and cost-containment strategies enjoyed by larger corporations. These innovative healthcare plans allow for:
- Tailored benefits that align with Christian values, ensuring that one's business supports what matters most
- National health plans, including PPO, HDHP, and HSA options
- Transparent structure and costs
- Multiple choices for individual company flexibility and member-owned status.
Covenant Choice for Small Groups specifically provides a unique opportunity to offer employees a health insurance plan that reflects commitment to faith and values. Exclusively available through the Christian Employers Alliance, this self-insured product provides protection against large claims with various options for deductibles, drug cards, and stop-loss insurance.
Join host Mark Griffin as he and Ericka discuss the intricacies of running smaller businesses while properly insuring their employees – without breaking the bank or one’s morals. As challenging as it may have felt in the past, it really is possible to find a plan that works for you!
