Quotes:
Ron Goldstein, CLU, President, California CHOICE Administrators:
"To help address rising premium costs, we launched the HSA California program. The key to the HSA California program is that all the benefit options are HSA qualified. That means no insured Rx coverage until the participant meets their deductible. Our early research indicated that everyone loved the concept but the one overriding concern was the lack of first dollar prescription drug coverage. United Networks of America came to the rescue by providing a supplemental discount Rx package which provided HSA California members prescription discounts until their deductible is reached. United Networks of America is an industry leader in providing innovative solutions that are unrivaled in the benefits marketplace."
Butch Passman, President, LA Business Group on Health:
“When Hurricanes Katrina and Rita hit Louisiana in 2005 you can imagine the impact on business organizations like the Louisiana Business Group on Health who depended upon membership to sustain the organization. Even though we lost about a third of the membership and almost 40 percent of our revenue we found we had a sudden and unexpected ally for survival, United Networks of America. They helped us develop and launch a private labeled “FREE” benefits program. In a short period of time the revenue generated by the program quickly rose to a six figure annual revenue stream. I can truly say had it not been for United Networks of America, this organization may not exist today. “
Lori Amirshahi, Director of Marketing, Greater Richmond Chamber:
“As a way of responding to the rising costs of healthcare, the Greater Richmond Chamber launched a Prescription Discount Card in April of 2008. We have been very pleased with the support received from United Networks of America in terms of fulfillment and service, as well as the benefits our member businesses and the community receive through use of the card. We are committed to getting the card into the hands of those who need it most and are encouraged to hear stories of people in our community who are benefiting from the discounts that are available through this program.”
