TrendMakers Show With Host Ron Dresner

TrendMakers with host Ron Dresner talks with Barter Business Unlimited President Debbie Lombardi about her new health care program for businesses, "BarterCare" that has become widely popular with business owners and managers throughout Connecticut and the New England states. www.bbubarter.com. Barter Business Unlimited, the region's leading barter exchange company for business owners throughout the United States, announced today that it has officially launched the region's first barter health care program. The new ?BarterCare? program is an exclusive healthcare management system that will allow businesses to subsidize and provide health care related products and services to their families and employees using barter dollars. While BarterCare is not a health insurance policy, it is a prepaid health management system that is similar to a heath savings account and other programs. BarterCare members will be able to purchase a prepaid benefit card that allows the card holder to use a long list of health care services throughout Connecticut and Massachusetts. Card holders will have a private account which can be accessed via the BarterCare Web site that will display current balances, health care purchases and providers available in the program. Once the card holder reaches their allocated limit, the card is no longer usable until additional funds are added by the barter member. Debbie Lombardi, president, Barter Business Unlimited said ?We have a long and growing list of health care providers that includes dentists, vision, skin care specialists all the way to nutritionists, orthodontists, chiropractors, strength/conditioning coaches and to hearing, hair restoration, walk-in medical centers, psychological and homeopathic providers.?
