At Knudson Benefits Group, we are always on the look out for new and creative ideas. We have a partner offering companies an interesting plan that grants their employees access to a number of urgent care clinics and all for just $25 a month. Think of it like a gym membership but for a medical clinic. In the same way that you pay a gym membership every month and then gain access to their facilities and services, this urgent care clinic membership plan allows you to walk into any of their clinics and be seen and treated with just a small $10 copay per visit.
Anything they can do inside their clinic would be covered. Here’s a list of some of the things they can do:

Here are a few ways to apply this plan:
Large Employers – Expanding your benefits to more of your employees
Perhaps you have a lot of part time employees that aren’t offered any insurance benefits or maybe you have a management carveout plan but want to offer your non-management level employees more options. This is the most affordable way we know to reach out and provide a benefit to your employees. True, it is limited in scope and certainly couldn’t replace the need for having a major medical insurance plan in place, but this is a plan you can offer to your employees and one they will likely use and appreciate a lot.
Supplementing High Deductibles
To keep control of your medical premiums, you have likely increased your medical insurance deductibles over the past 10 years. Offering this plan can help your employees more affordably get the care they need without the fear of incurring thousands of dollars in expenses.
Start Up Companies
When you are a brand new company just getting going, it can be hard to find room in your budget to offer affordable medical insurance to your employees. Offering this plan to your employees, while not insurance, can be a great way to start down the road of offering your employees a benefit at work. There’s a whole lot of bang for your buck in this plan and your employees will be grateful for the offer.
