Affinity Benefits Partners Announces Pan-American Benefits Program for Restaurants in Texas

DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Affinity Benefits Partners, a Hotchkiss Insurance Programs, LLC (HIP) company, launched an exclusive health benefits program for restaurants in Texas. Affinity Benefits Partners is the general agent for a network of approved insurance agents that meet the stringent requirements and have extensive knowledge and experience in the benefits industry.

In response to the pressures of rising insurance costs, Affinity Benefits Partners has partnered with Pan-American Benefits Solutions to offer group benefits that are affordable and easy to understand. PanaMed, underwritten by Pan-American Life Insurance Company, is a limited benefit indemnity plan that offers affordable health coverage and pays a fixed benefit amount to help cover the cost of common services. “We are excited to partner with Affinity Benefits Partners, and provide our signature product, PanaMed to restaurant owners in Texas,” said David Cheek, vice president of sales at Pan-American Benefits Solutions.

Hotchkiss Insurance Agency has been endorsed by the Texas Restaurant Association since January 2007 and has provided insurance solutions to more than 600 of its members. “We are committed to continually bring new, affordable insurance solutions to the Texas restaurant industry. Working closely with board members and restaurateurs, we learn about and respond to business needs quickly. Pan-American has been responsive and offers a usable solution to our clients,” says Anne Sheahen, vice president of Hotchkiss Insurance Programs, LLC. “The maze of managed care has created a need for basic health coverage. It is not a one-size-fits-all approach. Plans can be customized to fit the needs of both the employer and the employee. Employers will have options to offer the plans as employer-paid or voluntary, and employees will have access to a national preferred provider network, prescription drug plans, dental, vision, tele-health services, health advocates, wellness testing, and much more.”
