Med Plan offers one of the most extensive consumer-driven healthcare savings programs in Florida for individuals, employers and their employees.
Why Med | PlanThe Modern-Day Healthcare Dilemma The combination of the rising costs of healthcare at alarming rates and a sagging economy producing more lay-offs, downsizing, and forced early retirements, has led to more and more Americans becoming either totally responsible for the cost of their healthcare, or having to share a greater portion of the burden. Hence, the evolving of an ominous trend where less and less people are seeing their doctor on a regular basis due to the high cost. They usually wait until their condition deteriorates to the point where they use the hospital emergency room for primary care, and many of them end up not paying their medical bills under the circumstances. This is not only very costly to the hospitals but would take such a severe toll on the patient's health.
The average person goes to the doctor just twice a year. As a MED|PLAN member you could manage your household's healthcare when they need it without fear of the cost. MED|PLAN, using its power of "wholesale buying", has made attractive price agreements with providers, and the corresponding savings are passed on to you. Even more, you maintain control of your healthcare without interference from a third party.
