“Affordable health insurance coverage for employees is always a major concern within the business community”, said NKY Chamber President and CEO, Brent Cooper. “That is why we are so excited about the opportunity to partner with GLI and Commerce LEX to provide access to the Humana HealthSolutions program for employers throughout the state of Kentucky.”

“For many businesses, the cost of healthcare often hinders their ability to recruit a quality workforce and further invest in the business,” said Commerce Lexington Inc. President and CEO Bob Quick. “Through our ongoing partnership with Humana and other regional chambers of commerce, we have been able to offer discounted health insurance rates for several years. Now, those discounted rates will be available to businesses throughout the state thanks to the Humana HealthSolutions association plan. It’s another important way that we are providing support that directly benefits businesses and their employees.”

“Quality health coverage for Kentucky workers is vital during these uncertain times of health and economic challenges,” said Sarah Davasher-Wisdom, GLI President and CEO. “By leveraging this partnership with regional chambers of commerce, we are excited to offer healthcare plans to more Kentucky employers and their employees throughout the state.”

Working directly with brokers, and in collaboration with Humana, GLI, Commerce Lexington, and The Northern Kentucky Chamber will market this opportunity in all 120 counties in Kentucky.
