New Member Benefit - Group Health Benefits

The Center for Nonprofit Excellence (CNE) is proud to partner with the Center for Nonprofit Advancement’s Benefits Trust (Health Program) to bring members access to comprehensive coverage including a choice of health, dental, vision and life insurance plans from popular insurance carriers.

CNE is excited to broker access to the comprehensive benefits offered through the Health Program. Note that premiums are set annually by the Center for Nonprofit Advancement and may or may not be cheaper than your current coverage.

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE PROGRAM INCLUDE

  • A choice of health, dental, vision and life insurance plans from popular insurance carriers;
  • All plans are guaranteed issue, meaning your employees will never have to submit to a medical exam or questionnaire to receive coverage; and
  • COBRA coverage for active member employees who leave your organization.

  3. Competitive Rates: Renewal rates lower than the 14% average for the Center for Nonprofit Advancement's service area.
  4. COBRA Coverage: Offered to active members regardless of size.
  5. Strength in Numbers: Available exclusively to nonprofits, enabling our sector to leverage its own purchasing power.
