Stevens Hale & Associates Offers Health Care Mutual Workers' Comp Insurance

SAVANNAH, Ga. - Nov. 18, 2014 - PRLog -- Stevens Hale & Associates is pleased to announce the Savannah insurance agency has been appointed to begin offering the Health Care Mutual line of workers’ compensation policies for the health care industry and social service organizations.

Health Care Mutual provides workers’ compensation coverage for Georgia’s assisted living facilities, developmentally disabled service providers, home care agencies, hospices, hospitals, nursing homes, social service organizations, and more.

“As an independent insurance agency, we offer a variety of policy options, but we sought out Health Care Mutual specifically because of their history and expertise,” said Ben Brewer, an account executive at Stevens Hale & Associates. “They’ve been writing workers’ compensation policies in the field of senior living services in Georgia for 30-plus years, and this contract is a significant arrow in our quiver.”

During the late 1980s, obtaining affordable workers’ compensation coverage was a major challenge for agencies serving Georgia’s aging population. In 1992, providers joined together to establish a self-insured fund known as the Workers’ Compensation Fund for Health Care, with the goal of providing an affordable and stable source of quality workers’ compensation coverage by emphasizing loss control and claims handling. In 2001, the Fund was converted to an association captive insurance company and today, Health Care Mutual supports its sponsoring associations with marketing royalties. The associations use this money to provide advocacy, education, and networking opportunities for their members.

“Health Care Mutual has a conservative management philosophy with an emphasis on personal service and long-term relationships,” said Henry Stevens, chief executive officer at Stevens Hale & Associates. “They know the landscape in Georgia for healthcare and senior living facilities and what those organizations are going through.”
