Health insurance is one of the biggest and most confusing expenses a small business faces, and the options keep growing. Join us for a free, no-pressure session with Virginia Farm Bureau Health Insurance Solutions, a long-standing InUnison partner with over 35 years of experience shopping plans across multiple carriers. Their local agents will walk you through the full landscape of employer options, including individual and family plans and group health insurance, with a dedicated portion on the WiseChoice Healthcare Alliance: a self-funded group health program backed by Anthem’s stop-loss coverage, designed for small businesses with 2–50 employees.
