How smaller employers get access to volume purchasing power enjoyed by large employers
AOI HealthChoice is designed to help businesses with fewer than 100 employees gain access to employee benefits programs with the leverage of a large buying group. AOI HealthChoice multiple package combinations include health, dental, and vision provided by Health Net and Kaiser Permanente.
AOI HealthChoice is available only to members of Associated Oregon Industries (AOI) through selected professional, service-oriented AOI HealthChoice appointed agents. AKT Benefit Advisors, LP is the managing general agent for the AOI HealthChoice program and manages the appointment of agents.
AOI HealthChoice employers get added benefits:
AOI advocates in Salem for Oregon companies on the issues important to achieving a competitive and robust business climate in the state. Policy areas include energy, environment, education, workforce issues, healthcare, transportation and fiscal policy. AOI members, through their work on policy committees and with AOI Policy Managers, develop positions on important issues that are presented to legislators and agencies.
Getting Started
Employers: Ask your agent if they are an AOI HealthChoice appointed agent. AOI HealthChoice agents are selected licensed professionals able to provide you with current premium rates.
If you currently have a relationship with an agent who is not an appointed AOI HealthChoice agent, we can discuss the appointment process with them. If you do not have an insurance agent, we will be happy to recommend an appointed AOI HealthChoice agent in your area.
Agents: If you are seeking to expand your book of business with a product that will benefit your clients, contact AKT Benefit Advisors. AKT Benefit Advisors LP is the managing general agent for the AOI HealthChoice program and manages the appointment of retail agents.
