New Enrollment Opportunities for Small Businesses

Blue Cross of California NEWS FLASH

If your small business is enrolled in one of Blue Cross' Small Business Health Insurance plans, then you need to get a move on!! Blue Cross has a special open enrollment opportunity for Small Groups wanting to move some or all of your employees to any of BC's HSA-Compatible and HIA Plus Plans!

Now is the time for Small Group clients to combine good business and financial strategies with your end of the year Health Insurance decisions.

Why?

Because Blue Cross Life & Health Insurance Company’s Special Small Group Open Window begins December 1, 2007 and ends January 31, 2008 for small businesses that already have a Blue Cross Plan. During this time, any one or all of your currently enrolled employees can move over to any one of these plans:

Lumenos HSA 1500
Lunenos HSA 3000
Lumenos HIA Plus 3000
PPO 2400 (HSA Compatible)
PPO 3500 (HSA Compatible)

These comprehensive health plans offer great benefits such as low premiums and low annual out of pocket maximums ~ as well as the convenient option to set up an HSA (Health Savings Account) through Mellon Bank that works hand-in-hand with the plan. Your employees can fund their HSA with pre-tax dollars – and then use those dollars for qualified medical expenses including prescription drugs.

Remember => for January 1, 2008 effective dates, the IRS has determined that the maximum annual contribution will be $2900 for an individual and $5800 for a family

To enroll your Small Business and/or your currently enrolled Blue Cross employees in an HSA-Compatible or HIA Plus Plan for the New Year, simply email me and I will help you make the change!
