At Ultima, we understand the pressure on small business owners to provide health care benefits for their employees. The increase in health care costs and insurance plans make it next to impossible for business owners to provide such benefits. However, good employees are essentials to the success of any business. Business owners must offer more than their competitors to attract and retain good employees. On the other hand, the reality is that employees are unable to purchase health care coverage by themselves and yet do not qualify for public assistance. The result is a growing number of uninsured Americans with no access to the health care system.

At Ultima, we like to help with this growing problem. We offer a program for small business owners similar to our VIP plan that can be purchased for their employees. The program includes VIP primary care, physicals, basic blood work, office emergencies, EKGs, spirometry, immunizations, injections, pap smears, contraception and screening tests. Business owners may elect to pay for the employee or their families. The employees can also be asked to contribute to the monthly premiums that are a fraction of the cost compared to a comprehensive health care plan. Please note that these programs do not include prescription drugs, imaging or hospitalization, nor are they a replacement for any insurance health care coverage. But they provide a means for basic health care needs and access for those who otherwise would not have any coverage.

Please contact our office for pricing, as they can vary based on the number of people enrolled. The average cost is about $150 to $200 per person per month or $75 per paycheck or $5 per day (less than the cost of a premium cup of coffee).
