As the holiday season fast approaches as well as the end of 2024, we wanted to take a moment to remind you that Open Enrollment Period is quickly approaching. This is the one time of year when everyone can get or make changes to their health coverage plans for individuals, families and even businesses looking at employee coverage solutions without restrictions. One of the benefits of our partnership with LIG Solutions is your full access to a dedicated agent to help evaluate your current coverage and find the most affordable options for you, your family and even your employees because insurance is not one-size-fits-all. If you’re ready to speak to an agent, head over to our exclusive LIG website, www.ligmembers.com/spe to connect with your agent! #HealthCare #LIG #SPE #Partnership #Plastics
