Furniture World Magazine

The International Sleep Products Association (ISPA) anounced that it will offer a new major member benefit—the ISPACare™ Member Health Program. This new group healthcare program, available exclusively to U.S. ISPA members with two or more employees, is part of the association’s ongoing work to help its members reduce bottom-line costs and improve profitability. “Our research shows that many ISPA members will save 10% – 15% or more through this new program, compared to their existing healthcare plans,” noted VP of Marketing and Member Services, Debi Sutton. “We have been working on this program for quite some time and are excited to offer ISPACare™ as a means of helping our members save money, and provide a quality health plan.” Fully insured by certain underwriters at Lloyds, London, the plan includes: a comprehensive Group/Dental/Vision Program that covers physician services, hospitalization, surgery, prescriptions and preventative care; flexible plan designs with choice of office visit co-pays, deductibles, coinsurance levels and prescription drug options; and over 25 PPO networks nationwide to choose from. "This new member benefit represents ISPA's ongoing commitment to provide services that help member companies further control their overall expenses,” noted Martha Worley, president of the WorleyBeds. “As a Board Trustee of the ISPACare™ Member Health Program, I am excited about this great new offering from our association."
