Blytheville Group Health Insurance & Employee Benefits Plans

Blytheville, AR, lies near the junction of Arkansas, Missouri, and Tennessee and is approximately 60 miles north of Memphis. Its proximity to the Mississippi River is a major attraction for the 13,000 residents. Area employers often choose to include benefits as part of the compensation, so they can enhance their recruiting success. One sought-after benefit is group health insurance.

Group Health Insurance and Employee Benefits

Companies looking for a means of standing out from the competition should consider adding group health insurance to their benefits programs. Employees want sponsored insurance because they get better coverage at a lower price when compared to an individual plan. This asset enhances recruiting and improves employee retention and productivity.

Many companies share the cost of health insurance with their workers and also enjoy savings in the expense of recruiting and training when turnover falls. Furthermore, small companies can investigate support resources and tax credits affiliated with the ACA.

What to Look For In an Insurance Provider

Once you decide to proceed with adding health insurance to your benefits plan, the next challenge is determining what provider and what policies make sense for your organization. There are plenty of options, so consider some of these variables when deciding:

• Does the company have a favorable reputation in the industry?
• Does the company have the financial resources to meet its obligations?
• Does the insurance company demonstrate efficiency in processing claims?
• Are subscribers happy with the customer service response?
• Does the network (for a PPO or HMO plan) of medical providers include highly-regarded doctors and hospitals?
