HEALTH INSURANCE PLAN:
Larger groups get lower rates! This basic rule of health insurance can make it difficult for small employers to find affordable coverage. One solution is to combine their collective buying power and buy insurance coverage for all their employees. Small groups can do this by forming a “Health Care Alliance.” ORCA has accomplished this goal and is offering a very competitive Health Insurance Plan for members through the Construction Industry Alliance.
