Chamber’s Plan – Canada’s #1 Plan for Employee Benefits
Great benefits shouldn’t break the bank when providing for your employees.
Health insurance pools can help small to mid sized businesses with generally healthy employees because the high costs of any one person in a larger pool will have less of an impact.
How can insurers cover losses for relatively small premiums?
When deciding on group benefits plans you can choose to be part of a pooled plan. Pooled plans allow for extremely strong rate stability.
Pooled insurance plans benefit both individuals and businesses by providing stability, reduced premiums, and a more reasonable cost distribution.
