CONSUMER CHOICE in health care is growing, as is the demand for help in making those decisions.
Now Kansas Citians have access to a new Internet service to compare local health insurance prices.
Power Group Benefits launched the first Web site offering comparative health insurance quotes targeted to the Kansas City metro area. While national companies offer side-by-side online quotes, PowerEnroll.com offers residents the speed of Web-based shopping, but the additional support of a local company to answer additional questions.
Visitors of the site can compare health insurance quotes side-by-side from up to four carriers and then may apply online or download the forms and fax or mail the applications to the carrier.
