BENESTREAM ANNOUNCES INVITATION TO THE APRIL 16 BENESTREAM/HR.COM WEBINAR
NEW YORK—BeneStream Inc.
(www.benestream.com), a New York company that enrolls lower-income workers in Medicaid, has announced a free live webinar on April 16 conducted in partnership with HR.com. Insurance, HR, and accounting professionals will learn about what is required to get workers onto Medicaid instead of a company health insurance plan while staying compliant with the new healthcare laws. Participants will also learn why Medicaid is usually a better choice for workers and their families.
Medicaid is comprehensive government insurance including vision, dental, and prescription drugs with no deductible and very low co-pays. In most states a family of four can earn up to $32,900 per year and still qualify for free coverage. At least 4.5 million Americans have already enrolled in Medicaid since income qualifications were expanded under Obamacare.
BeneStream projects to save its clients nearly $100 million in health insurance premiums during its first full year of operations. BeneStream is currently screening thousands of employees for Medicaid eligibility on behalf of its clients, businesses in multiple industries including home health and food services. It anticipates that it will screen approximately 250,000 employees in the coming year. With BeneStream, typical premium cost savings for an employer are estimated to be a minimum of $1,500 per employee per year.
Companies with 50+ employees that are concerned about how they can afford to provide health insurance are encouraged to register for the webinar or contact BeneStream directly. The expansion of Medicaid coverage, a newly enacted provision of the Affordable Care Act (“Obamacare”) provides a no-cost solution for many employers and quality health insurance to millions of workers—a win-win scenario. In most states a family of four can earn up to $32,900/year and still qualify for free coverage.
