Members of the NCBA Health Plan will have 2 new plan options to choose from for the coming plan year which begins Oct. 1. Both are High-Deductible Plans designed to be compatible with individual Health Savings Accounts. These accounts allow participants to contribute pre-tax dollars for qualifying medical expenses which can accumulate from year to year.
One Care Street is a new health assessment and coaching service available in the fall to all employees in the plan. The program features a complete health assessment from which members will receive a personalized health action guide and have access to health coaching services provided to assist in maximizing their health and well-being.
As the Health Benefit Trust approaches the conclusion of its fourth year, membership has grown to 3,802 employees and 7,305 lives, a 46% increase since its inception in 2002. With expanded plan options available to firms and a new health management tool, members of the NCBA plan have even greater opportunities to make more efficient use of their health plan dollars.
