Anthem Blue Cross & Blue Shield

This new self-funded medical offering called the SOCA Benefit Plan is a multiple employer welfare arrangement (MEWA). MEWAs enable smaller employers to join together to share in the overall claims risk. By being part of a larger, self-funded pool, employers have financial protection backed by Anthem’s stop loss coverage. The SOCA Benefit Plan is available to small business employers that have at least two people enrolled on their medical plan and no more than 50 total employees. The business must be domiciled in Ohio, and must be a member in good standing with a Chamber of Commerce that is qualified to offer the SOCA Benefit Plan. To learn more about the SOCA Benefit Plan and its many advantages, contact your local Anthem Elite or Champion Broker, or ask your Chamber of Commerce for a referral. *discount only applies to chamber members who do not already have Anthem insurance.

Save Significantly on Your Workers’ Compensation Premium

Sedgwick logo

Did you know that many alternative discounts are available to help reduce your annual Ohio workers’ compensation costs? Through the Greater Springfield Partnership workers’ compensation program, your organization can significantly reduce your workers’ compensation costs through a variety of alternative rating programs. Our program, administered by Sedgwick, offers you quality service and stability through the complex workers’ compensation environment.

For over 50 years, Sedgwick has been helping employers navigate Ohio’s workers’ compensation system, providing services to help them control claim-related costs and reduce premiums. Our team includes the experienced colleagues from CompManagement and CareWorks Comp. The two companies merged and are now Sedgwick. Together, we serve nearly 65,000 Ohio employers including organizations of all sizes operating in various industries across the state. Group rating programs administered by Sedgwick have produced over $4 billion in savings since group rating was introduced in 1991, and their group retrospective programs have returned over $630 million in premium refunds since the program began in 2009.

If your organization is not yet participating in this member benefit, and you would like to receive a free, no-obligation analysis from Sedgwick, email our Business Development Manager, Julia Bowling at julia.bowling@sedgwick.com

SOCA PEP (Pooled Employer Plan)

Under the SECURE Act, the first significant retirement-related legislation in more than a decade, employers can offer retirement plans to their employees through a Pooled Employer Plan (PEP). In a PEP, employers of all sizes, industries, locations, etc., can join and become a "member employer" through the SOCA Pooled Employer Plan (SOCA PEP). The Newport Group, the Pooled Plan Provider (PPP) of the SOCA PEP, is responsible for establishing, managing, providing fiduciary oversight, and operating the plan on behalf of the member employers.
