SMALL SCHOOL DISTRICT, BIG IMPACT

Imagine a healthcare plan where employees and their dependents get all the care they need and never pay an out-of-pocket expense.

In 2012, Bennett School District realized they were on an unsustainable path of year-over-year double digit increases. Each increase negatively impacted their budget and resulted in a hidden pay cut for their employees. Those increases were also hurting their ability to deliver their mission critical programs that are vital to their students and community.

As educational leaders, we are asking our teachers and staff to do more with less every year. The demands put on teachers and their families are mentally and emotionally taxing. They can’t afford the financial and emotional stress of high out-of-pocket costs or year-over-year increases to their employee premium.

By applying free market principles, establishing direct relationships with providers, and removing middlemen profits, Bennett School District can offer a zero deductible, zero copy, zero out-of-pocket plan that includes free in person mental health visits and free prescription drugs.

Because of your work, our teachers were the only ones in our region to get pay raises this year. It is hard to imagine where we would be without you.

Bennett School District was recently recognized as a “Top 50 Health Plan” in the country by the Health Rosetta Community.
