Nashville-based insurance and music healthcare advocacy organization Sound Healthcare & Financial has formed a true group health insurance policy plan with Blue Cross Blue Shield of TN available exclusively for members of the Nashville Musicians Association, AFM Local 257 and only available through Sound Healthcare & Financial.
“What we’ve been able to accomplish for our music community has never been done before,” said Sound Healthcare & Financial Founder and CEO, RJ Stillwell. “Outside the ACA Individual Marketplace, which is significantly diminishing in terms of participating carriers and networks, the only two ways in which one generally becomes insured is through an employer’s group policy or through a self-insured group. Those plans, however, are not typically available to music professionals as over 78% are self-employed.“
Through months of efforts leveraging industry relationships, Sound Healthcare & Financial has achieved a fully-insured ACA compliant True Group plan that is now available for musicians and industry professionals who are members of the union. Enrollment in the Nashville Musicians Sound Healthcare Plan is exclusively available through Sound Healthcare & Financial, and more information can be found at SouthHealthcare.org, 615-256-8667 or by contacting info@soundhealthcare.org.
