There’s Strength in Numbers

A medical plan that lets small businesses join together for more plan options and lower rates

Say hello to the Chamber Benefit Plan.

A multiple employer welfare arrangement (MEWA) designed for businesses like yours.

When it comes to providing employees with cost-saving health care coverage, small businesses are at a big disadvantage compared to their larger counterparts. Because of their smaller size, their claims risk pool is spread out across a much smaller employee population. That can result in higher, less stable insurance rates — and fewer viable plan choices.

Fortunately, there’s a simple and affordable medical plan alternative: the Chamber Benefit Plan.

Powered by the Missouri Chamber Federation and administered by Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield, the Chamber Benefit Plan is available to small group employers, who:

  • Are members of a qualifying Chamber of Commerce
  • Have 2 – 50 eligible employees

By being a part of a larger, self-funded pool, employers have financial protection backed by Anthem’s stop loss coverage. In addition to financial protection, the Chamber Benefit Plan offers:

  • Competitive, medically underwritten rates
  • Fixed, predictable monthly payments
  • A variety of plan designs, including 10 PPO and three HSA options
  • Anthem’s Blue Access, Blue Access Choice and Blue Preferred networks
  • Coverage for claims run-out/terminal liability coverage Open
  • Simple, streamlined administration

As a chamber member, you can take advantage of this simple, affordable medical plan. You’ll get access to a full range of high-quality plans and options that can lead to significant savings. It’s just one of the many advantages of being a chamber member.
