Encouraging a healthy workforce with the right plan

In the construction industry, it’s important to have an employee health plan for your employees that’s flexible and meets the modern needs of the entire workforce — yet finding affordable medical coverage is no small feat.

The AGC Health Benefit Trust is one of the top state-approved association health plans for the construction industry. Here’s what makes it work well for our members.

Providing flexibility, stability and choice

The AGC Health Benefit Trust includes a number of insurance carriers and vendors that provide our members with a robust benefits package that helps to retain and attract employees. It’s underwritten as a single-employer benefit plan, which means that you have more choice in plan design and benefits that speak the most to your individual employee needs.

Besides specific medical benefits, there are also health and wellness programs that are a part of the plan. Carriers from UnitedHealthcare, for instance, offer management tools for online health, a virtual weight loss program and employee rewards for wellness.

As part of the Health Benefits Trust, a few elements might be particularly attractive to your employees. Here are some of those highlights.

Prescriptions: Plans can include prescription drug benefits, including mail-order pharmacy services to provide a greater level of convenience.
Greater choice: The trust includes an extensive network of local providers and hospitals, making it easier to find the right care for individual needs
Exclusive offers for construction: There are programs that are geared more toward the health needs of the construction industry.


Specific types of insurance: Unlike some plans, the trust includes orthodontics, dental and vision as benefit options.
Advice 24/7: There is a medical advice line manned by healthcare providers that can answer any question at any time during the day or night.
