Health care and auto insurance discounts
The Chamber offers a business medical insurance program that can be tailored or packaged to match your company's needs. We offer all the best possible rates, from the high-quality carriers you know and trust, including United Healthcare, and Washington Dental Service. Our packages include all the options you'd expect, but at the discounted group rates normally reserved for larger employers. Competitive individual plans are also available.
Available exclusively through the Chamber of Commerce to its members, The Chamber's business health benefit programs are comprehensive. They offer excellent benefits for all your needs, including medical, dental, vision, prescription drugs, employee assistance, Section 125 and voluntary supplemental plans.
Because benefits can be administrative nightmares, we've made The Chamber's health benefit plan virtually hassle free. Managed and administered by a third party, Market Street Benefits, there's only one phone number to call, one simple monthly bill, and a streamlined application process.
For more information about The Chamber's health and dental plans, please call 253-683-1557 or Robert@marketstreetbenefits.com.
