Your Employees Deserve Healthcare. Now You Can Afford It.
More than 28 million Americans work for employers who don't offer health insurance. myHometown Direct Care gives your employees unlimited urgent care visits, telehealth, and occupational health services at a flat monthly rate you control — the most affordable way to offer a meaningful health benefit and stand out when recruiting.
Not Insurance. myHometown Direct Care is a direct primary care membership — not health insurance. It is not subject to the insurance laws of the State of Ohio and does not meet any individual health insurance mandate that may be required under federal law.
Not included in any tier: Hospital-based services · Emergency Room services · Specialist services · Advanced imaging (MRI, CT, mammograms, etc.) · Molecular lab tests
The Challenge
Traditional group health insurance costs Ohio small businesses an average of $7,000–$22,000 per employee per year. For businesses with 5–50 employees, that's simply unaffordable. The result: employees go without care, get sicker, miss more work, and eventually leave for employers who offer benefits.
