Announcing the relaunch of HealthInsure.com
After months of hard work and thought, we are excited to launch the new improved website for HealthInsure.com, the main website for Castle Group Health. We have strived to make the website user-friendly and easy to navigate, as well as modern and visually appealing.
As Castle Group Health continues to be a leader in Employee Benefits and HR Services for small businesses, it’s important for to us to make information easily accessible to our current and potential clients. This includes information regarding our services, industry trends, changes to healthcare law, compliance and any other area where we may share our expertise in the industry.
On the Employee Benefits page, clients will appreciate the brief, but useful information on various types of employee benefits, including MEC plan descriptions and the pros and cons of fully-funded vs. self-funded plans, to name a few. Be sure to also read our latest blog, Hierarchy of Benefits, according to what employees say they want most, an overview of the latest national employee benefit surveys reflecting some interesting benefit trends with the emergence of COVID 19.
Clients can also access and follow our social media profile, LinkedIn where we are posting information from our Blog often. You can also subscribe to the monthly newsletter to stay informed.
If you have questions or would like provide feedback, please email us.
