Group Now Offers Health Insurance to Its Members Billings, Mont. (October 28, 2008) – In an effort to expand benefits and services to its membership, R-CALF USA is now offering members the opportunity to purchase health insurance through America’s Healthplan Consultants (AHC). “Most of our members are self-employed, independent business owners who find that health insurance is a major expense, yet they don’t have access to any kind of clearing house for the various health insurance programs that may be available to them,” said R-CALF USA CEO Bill Bullard. “By making a single phone call, this new service will assist our members who do not have adequate or affordable health insurance. There is such a need for this across Rural America, and we’re pleased to offer all of our members – cattle producers to associate members – help in finding quality health coverage through a new partnership with AHC, which offers many products for our members to pick from. “AHC offers R-CALF USA members the ability to comparison shop for their health coverage,” he continued. “AHC negotiates with multiple insurance carriers to bring health insurance access to the self-employed and others at an affordable level.” In most states, AHC pledges to quote at least three insurance carriers. These can include Mutual of Omaha, Blue Cross & Blue Shield, Golden Rule, American Republic, PacifiCare, Assurant, World, Conseco, Humana, Coventry, American Community and others. From these choices, R-CALF USA members can call a toll-free number to compare the prices and coverage to their current costs and make the best financial choice for their situation. AHC offers insurance solutions for R-CALF USA members with different needs and in all stages of life. Some of the coverage offerings brought to you by AHC include:
“Persons who wish to access this service but who are not yet members of R-CALF USA can call the R-CALF USA office at 406-252-2516 to immediately purchase a membership, which would make them eligible to participate in this new service,” Bullard concluded. “R-CALF USA staff is not certified to answer insurance questions, so members will need to call 877-899-5325 for a no-obligation quote. Also, members can get detailed information at www.r-calfusa.com under the ‘Insurance’ link.” # # # R-CALF USA (Ranchers-Cattlemen Action Legal Fund, United Stockgrowers of America) is a national, non-profit organization dedicated to ensuring the continued profitability and viability of the U.S. cattle industry.
