Colorado Springs Chamber & EDC Introduces Healthcare Benefits for Members
The Colorado Springs Chamber & EDC is now offering a suite of healthcare benefits designed to help members at the Connection level and above reduce costs while enhancing the benefits they provide to employees.
In partnership with Limitless Rx Solutions, Pinnacle Advanced Primary Care, and Kaiser Permanente, these solutions include a range of options tailored to different business needs, allowing employers to choose what works best for their teams. Each program offers distinct features and pathways to provide health coverage.
Option 1: Limitless Rx Solutions
Prescription costs are at an all-time high, and most health plans still source medications through the most expensive channels. Limitless Rx Solutions’ Pharmacy Stewardship Program helps employers significantly lower pharmaceutical costs by bypassing the traditional U.S. supply chain, allowing them to provide access to the same medications at a fraction of the price.
There is no required plan redesign, no vendor swaps, and no member disruption. The Pharmacy Stewardship Program operates alongside the other options offered or your existing plan. The same medication is delivered to the member’s home with white-glove service and $0 out-of-pocket cost.
Employers reduce waste and cut costs by about 50% without disrupting existing plans, networks, vendors, or operations.
As part of this package, Chamber & EDC members receive a free pharmaceutical consultation.
Option 2: Pinnacle Advanced Primary Care
Pinnacle Advanced Primary Care has teamed up with Five|50 Advisory to launch a new kind of health plan that puts control back in the hands of Colorado businesses.
The Pinnacle Five|50 Health Plan is built for employers with 50+ employees, focusing on prevention, simplicity, and transparency. Instead of co-pays, deductibles, and surprise bills, plans in this program offer access to benefits including:
- $0 out-of-pocket costs when using the preferred network
- Unlimited visits, virtual care, labs, medications, and procedures — included
- Major medical (such as surgery, maternity, cancer) when coordinated through Pinnacle—$0 in-network
- One easy-to-use plan customized to your team
- Pinnacle as your healthcare quarterback — guiding care and cutting costs
Most plans are engineered around claims and codes. Ours is engineered around care.
With physicians running point, your employees start in primary care, get fast access to the right specialists, and avoid the waste, delays, and surprise bills that inflate renewals.
Option 3: Kaiser Permanente
Navigating health care shouldn’t be complicated. That’s why Kaiser Permanente is transforming the experience by seamlessly connecting care and coverage, making it easier and more convenient for businesses and individuals alike. With over 28 years of service in Southern Colorado, Kaiser Permanente continues to deliver nationally recognized care through its integrated model and extended network of affiliated providers.
