Is your nonprofit ready to offer health coverage to your staff for the first time? Are you curious if there are options that are more affordable or provide better coverage than what you currently offer? Are your current health benefits negatively impacting your ability to find and keep skilled employees?
If you answered yes to any of the questions above, there’s no better time to start the process of exploring your options for the year to come.
The Minnesota Council of Nonprofits invites you to learn more about BenefitsMN, the association health plan open to MCN member organizations. Now in its second year, BenefitsMN has 77 nonprofit organizations participating, covering 536 nonprofit employees and 875 lives in total. As 2022 approaches, those numbers continue to grow, giving BenefitsMN even more bargaining power when negotiating for and providing comprehensive, affordable plan offerings from plan provider, Medica.
During this free virtual session, you’ll learn key findings from the first two years of BenefitsMN, as well as information about the health plans, networks, pricing, and related benefits that can help your organization attract, retain, and support your staff.
RSVP for the event on Zoom.
