Belleville, Illinois, March 29, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Allsup, a nationwide benefits firm providing guidance and education on alternative healthcare coverage options for employees and retirees, will be exhibiting at the annual BenefitsPRO Broker Expo held April 2-4, 2019, at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Miami, Florida.

Allsup representatives will be available at booth 804, providing information on Medicare plan selection, enrollment into Medicare Parts A and B, and establishing employer healthcare secondary to Medicare. Medicare eligible participants can include older workers, dependents, and individuals with disabilities. 

“Offering high-quality healthcare alternatives to employees can help your business stay innovative and competitive,” said Tricia Blazier, Director of Healthcare Insurance Services at Allsup. “I am looking forward to helping brokers understand how Allsup can save employers thousands by directing them to the proper healthcare decisions.”

As healthcare premiums, deductibles, and out-of-pocket costs continue to rise every year, Medicare has become an attractive alternative to employer plans. Medicare premiums are stable (as low as $134), deductibles are lower (usually under $200), out-of-pocket costs are lower or zero, and networks are often broader (93% of primary care physicians accept Medicare).

Employers can utilize the option of transitioning eligible employees to Medicare to help combat rising health costs and avoid high price claims down the road. Medicare plans also provide significant worth for older workers and their dependents, sometimes with more advantages and value when compared with employer group health coverage.

Allsup provides guidance and support to employers and employees through the Medicare coordination process, allowing for a smooth transition.
