Prescription Assistance Program Offered
Jan 2008 - Design Benefits has added to their portfolio of health care related services by offering a prescription assistance program. This program is available nationwide to individuals and their families who need maintenance medications but are unable to afford them.
Prescription Assistance Programs (PAPs) provide free or low cost prescription medicine to people who are uninsured or under-insured and meet income guidelines. These programs are sponsored by the pharmaceutical companies who manufacture the medicine and are not to be confused with prescription discount services such as Together Rx Access.
Unlike other programs, the Design Benefits MedPro program actually assists the individual with the application process and provides the necessary patient advocacy that are a requirement of some PAPs.
Wellness Program Now Available
Aug 2007 - Design Benefits is pleased to announce the availability of a national interactive online wellness program to employers and organizations. Corporate health and wellness programs are becoming an integral part in managing escalating health care costs to slow or prevent the growth of an unhealthy employee population.
Wellness programs have shown impressive returns and remarkable results. Health care costs for companies and organizations that offer Wellness programs are significantly reduced.

Voluntary Benefits
Also known as worksite benefits, voluntary benefits are offered by employers to help round out their benefit packages. These types of benefits provide a financial safety net where individuals may be vulnerable.
These policies do not replace traditional health insurance, but due to today’s technology and medical advancements, medical treatment is also be more expensive. Even with medical insurance, people can and do experience financial hardship because of medical expenses their health insurance doesn't cover, for example, high deductibles or out of pocket expenses.
Traditional health insurance is simply not designed to meet the additional expenses of a critical illness or serious condition caused by an accident. That’s why voluntary benefits can be crucial to your insurance planning. Voluntary benefits can help pay some of your hospital and doctor charges, or even replace part of your lost income.
Voluntary benefits provide cash at a time when it’s needed the most, regardless of other insurance benefits. The money can be used to make payments on your mortgage, pay deductibles, co pays or coinsurance requirements, hire help for around the house, pay for day care or elder care, travel to treatments – you decide.
Whether you are an employer or an individual, please contact us for information and rates specific for your state of residence. Enrolling in a voluntary benefits plan today can help you avoid the financial strain a major illness or unforeseen major injury tomorrow may create.
