Affordability
Plans that help your bottom line
Our size and strength make it easier for us to negotiate deep discounts and collaborate with care providers. The result is lower costs and better health for your employees while you save on premiums.
Our flexible plan options help you meet the needs of your business and your employees. In addition to Affordable Care Act (ACA) plans, you can choose from these alternative funding plans:
- Anthem Balanced Funding (ABF)
Our ABF plans offer financial security with a fixed monthly payment, with potential savings for lower claims.
- Multiple employer welfare arrangement (MEWA)
When you join the WiseChoice Healthcare Alliance, your small business becomes part of a large, self-funded group. These plans are backed by the financial protection of Anthem’s stop loss coverage so you’ll be protected from unexpected large claims.

3 In addition to using a telehealth service, members can receive in-person or virtual care from their own doctor or another healthcare provider in the plan’s network. If they receive care from a doctor or healthcare provider not in their plan’s network, their share of the costs may be higher. They may also receive a bill for any charges not covered by their health plan.
4 Appointments are subject to the availability of a therapist. Online counseling is not appropriate for all kinds of issues.
Sydney Health is offered through an arrangement with Carelon Digital Platforms, a separate company offering mobile application services on behalf of your health plan.
