eHealth, Inc. (NASDAQ: EHTH), which operates eHealth.com, a
leading private online health insurance exchange, announced today
that it is now providing Square’s small business customers with
access to a broad range of health insurance solutions as well as
eHealth’s innovative plan comparison tools and robust customer
support.
Square’s point-of-sale service offers tools for every part of
running a small business, from accepting credit cards and tracking
inventory to real-time analytics and invoicing. Through the Square
dashboard, the more than two million small businesses using Square
now have access to a co-branded eHealth website offering brand-name
small business and individual & family health insurance
options.
By accessing eHealth through the Square dashboard, small
businesses can compare health insurance plans online from multiple
insurance companies and get customized quotes for their business.
At no cost, small business owners can also get personalized help
and useful advice from licensed eHealth agents. eHealth has also
expanded its offering to enable online applications for small group
health insurance with select insurance companies, which enables
health insurance applications to be approved in as little as 24
hours in some instances.
“We are incredibly excited to work with Square and introduce
their small business customers to the great health insurance
options available to them and their employees,” said eHealth CEO
Scott Flanders. “Whether they’re purchasing coverage only for
themselves or for their employees as well, a quality health
insurance plan is an investment in any small business’s future –
and eHealth has the comprehensive selection and tools they need to
find the best plan for their needs.”
