The IHC Group Announces Strategic Alliance between Aspira A Más and Health Family Insurance

Miami, FL (PRWEB) May 05, 2016

The IHC Group announced today that Aspira A Más, its Hispanic sales and marketing division, and Health Family Insurance (HFI) have established a strategic distribution alliance that will increase the general agency's product portfolio with a suite of much-needed insurance options for Hispanic communities.

A full service national general agency founded in 1996, HFI is headquartered in Miami Lakes, Florida with health, life, and property and casualty divisions, making it one of the largest and most diverse agencies in the country.

"With over 900 independent advisors in their Health Division alone, this is a wonderful opportunity for like-minded companies to come together to achieve our common goal: to provide access and guidance to Latinos about health insurance that will protect their most valuable asset- their family's well-being," said Javier Tejeda-Vera, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Aspira A Más.

Through the new alliance with Aspira A Más, HFI can now offer budget-friendly health insurance solutions to their thousands of consumers to meet their individual or family needs for:

   •  Metal Gap, a supplemental insurance that bridges the gap in coverage with ACA plans
   •  Short Term Medical
   •  Critical Illness
   •  Dental
   •  Telemedicine

"We strive to be pioneers in the ever evolving competitive insurance environment and specialize in the hard-to reach Hispanic market. And we recognize the same excellence we strive for in Aspira A Más," commented Raul Sahagun, Vice President of Health Sales for Health Family Insurance. "In the last two ACA Open Enrollment Periods, our team achieved 200,000 Obamacare policies. Also, we are very excited to offer our loyal customers additional health insurance products that will not only protect them financially, but also help them be smarter in managing their health spending."

Aspira A Más ("Aspire for More"), a marketing division of IHC Specialty Benefits, which is a member of The IHC Group, is dedicated to serving and creating professional career opportunities for Hispanics along with essential major medical and ancillary health insurance products.
