Chambers of Commerce Group Insurance Plan
Over 22,000 businesses nation wide have chosen to go with Canada’s number one group benefit insurance plan, and what are they getting? A high value, flexible and reliable plan that won’t cancel coverage or single out any one firm for rate increases due to excessive claims.
The Chamber Group Insurance Plan is run on a non-profit basis and premiums are set to cover the cost of administration and the plan’s benefits. You can choose what benefits you’d like to receive from a wide variety including health and drug coverage, short and long-term disability, dental coverage, business overhead expense, life insurance and retirement savings. In addition, you can pick what level coverage you’d like to receive for each benefit.
The Chambers of Commerce Group Benefit Insurance Plan pools all benefits together so that no one company can be singled out for rate increases or coverage cancellations due to excessive claims. This includes health and dental coverage. The plan also strives to keep stability in costs and benefits. The rates are never discounted to attract new business and then later increased to offset the loss.
These benefits are available to anyone. All firms can apply to join the plan regardless of the employees’ occupations and there is no limit as to how big your firm has to be. Sole proprietorships are just as able to get coverage as institutions with 20 or more employees. In addition, if your firm has three or more full time employees each individual is guaranteed the basic levels of coverage!
