Health Insurance (Small Group or Individual Plans) + Dental/Vision
Health insurance has become much more complex over the past few years and the cost can be a major deterrent for entrepreneurs, when deciding to go out on their own.
The Chamber is pleased to offer our members options for your employee benefits. We have recently partnered with Spring Collaborative Group, LLC, a licensed health insurance broker to help you, our members to present you with options.
For information on Small Group or Individual Health plans and rates, call Jeannie D’Ambrosio direct at 716-697-7246, or email her at jeannie@springcollaborative.com.
