The Chamber will offer members an opportunity to learn how they can take control of their health care costs through a new health plan solution at a series of special programs to be held over the coming months. The events, which will be held in the Business Advancement Center presented by IncredibleBank Foundation at the historic downtown train depot headquarters for the Chamber, will be hosted in partnership with M3 Insurance and WPS Health Insurance.

The Greater Wausau Chamber of Commerce has partnered with M3 Insurance to provide an exclusive health plan offering to businesses in the Greater Wausau area.

Built exclusively for Greater Wausau Chamber of Commerce members, the Chamber Health Plan delivers meaningful savings – right from the start and throughout the year. Many employers have employee benefit renewals soon approaching. Please join us for a complimentary educational discussion of the Chamber Health Plan Initiative for employers with 5-99 enrolled employees.

Topics to be discussed:

  • What is the Chamber Health Plan?
  • Is it a good fit for my business?
  • Success stories
  • How to initiate a quote
The Chamber Health Plan Initiative is not a co-op or association plan. Each participating business is individually underwritten, meaning rates and coverage are tailored to their actual group — not pooled risk. That means participants keep control and avoid the one-size-fits-all approach of association health plans.
