Universal Health Care, LLC Opening A New Path In Healthcare

(MENAFN- GlobeNewsWire - Nasdaq) DALLAS, Oct. 18, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via IBN -- Universal Care Groups LLC (“UCG”) is excited to announce that it is now offering a unique, platinum Section 125 Cafeteria plan (“125”) and a Minimum Essential Coverage (“MEC”) plan that will benefit qualifying employers and employees.

“We are excited that UCG has developed a 'win/win' product with better employee health benefits and a robust cafeteria plan,” stated Jason Pratt, one of the three Managing Partners of UCG.“By including these products into their compensation package, employers will attract more qualified employees, increase their retention, and reduce the employers' health costs.

While cafeteria plans have been available to Americans since November 1978, UCG's plan is different. It is funded by existing FICA deductions, typically resulting in a net savings for the employer and the employee alike. Some key benefits of UCG's plan include:

• In qualifying cases, tax savings may offset premiums and administrative fees for the employee and employer, respectively.
• Qualified employees may see an average of up to a 4% increase in take-home pay after completion of health management activities.
• Employers potentially could achieve savings in annual taxes of $600-$750 per employee.

UCG's Section 125 plan is focused upon businesses with 50 or more employees. 125 will positively affect the lives of employees across the U.S. UCG's robust plan augments existing health care with benefits in primary care, urgent care, dermatology, dental, vision, fitness and other benefits.

UCG's MEC plans offer employers Affordable Care Act (ACA)-compliant benefit packages that cover essential health needs at minimal costs, and include vital core attributes:

• Compliance solutions for employers' peace of mind
• Easily accessible services for all users
• Cost effectiveness for all budgets

These MEC plans are designed to meet ACA requirements by ensuring coverage of key benefits, such as preventive care, mental health services, and prescriptions. By offering minimum essential coverage, employers can avoid potential penalties, which in 2024 have amounted to $2,970 per full-time employee annually ($247.50 per month per employee). UCG also provides solutions that help employers avoid a second penalty of $372 per employee per month ($4,460 per year) if the coverage offered is not affordable or fails to meet minimum value requirements.

UCG's focus on affordability does not compromise quality. Many of the company's MEC plans are priced at less than $100 per month, providing 24/7 access to telehealth services, virtual care, and a variety of benefits tailored to the needs of today's workforce. This approach enables employers to offer comprehensive healthcare options that streamline access to care. This includes making coverage easy to understand, utilize, and significantly more cost-effective than traditional major medical plans.
