Chamber Blue of Kansas Provides Value to Kansas Small Businesses

Chamber Blue of Kansas launched in 2022 as a partnership between Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Kansas (BCBSKS) and the Chamber of Commerce Executives of Kansas (CCEKS) to help small business owners in pursuit of affordable and stable healthcare coverage.  Now in its second year, Chamber Blue is requesting interested businesses to respond by August 18th for the opportunity to be included.

Eric Brown, Group Sales Consultant with Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Kansas, says Chamber Blue is an association health plan (AHP), that works with chambers across Kansas to provide small businesses access to health insurance savings typically associated with large group medical coverage.

Chamber Blue is available to employers who have acceptable risk and are active members in good standing with their local, participating chamber.  In addition, they must have 50 or fewer full-time equivalent employees.

Brown says this effort prioritizes small business by providing quality, reliable health insurance from a trusted Kansas name and creates opportunities for them to attract and retain their most valuable asset – their employees.

If you're interested in joining the Chamber Blue health plan, go to bcbsks.com/chamber and complete the form on the website.  A Blue Cross representative will reach out to you to answer any questions you have.  If you want to pursue coverage, they will direct you to an interest survey to complete.

Interested groups must complete the interest survey to be eligible to enroll.  Survey information determines rates, which will be announced in October.

Chamber Blue of Kansas will be the Concordia Chamber of Commerce Coffee Sponsor on Tuesday, July 25th.  Chamber Coffees are held at 8 am in the Chamber Meeting Room, located at 207 W. 6th Street in downtown Concordia.
