Where Chambers Plan has you covered

Stable rates
Chambers pLan’ not-for-profit structure, combined with pooling among its 30,000 members, equals one of the industry’s lowest average renewals, at 4% over the last decade.
+HR is a plus for staff and owners
There’s more to employee care than employee benefits. That’s why Chambers Plan now includes +HR. It’s a suite of services that cover all sides of the workplace experience, including wellness tools for employees and business-health resources for owners.
Here are a few of the features you’ll find in +HR
Professional Consulting on key issues
Chambers Plan’s Business Assistance Service, provided by Arcora, connects you to third-party experts who can provide confidential, one-to-one guidance over the phone. The phone consulting includes nine hours total of personal legal, financial, and human resource guidance combined, per calendar year. You also have unlimited access to general human resource support and confidential employee referrals for counselling, plus, a curated library of business templates and essential resources.
Telemedicine Services
Thanks to our strong partnership with Teladoc Health®, Chambers Plan +HR includes telemedicine at no additional cost to members.
