Flex adds Harken Health to portfolio

ROSEMONT - Flexible Benefit Service Corp. has added Harken Health® to its General Agency portfolio for individual health insurance in Illinois.

An independently operated subsidiary of the UnitedHealth Group, Harken offers a re-imagined health care model with an emphasis on primary care, local health centers and access to a nationwide network.

Exclusively available to Cook County residents, Harken's four local health care centers in the Chicago metropolitan area include primary-care physicians, nurse practitioners, behavioral-care specialists, health coaches and more. The health center locations are in the South Loop, Wicker Park, Des Plaines and Edgewater.

"With high claims affecting industry giants, a health care model with a laser focus on primary care and early diagnosis may be the innovator needed to keep costs down for local individuals and families," said John DiVito, president of Flex. "We are very proud to be one of the first General Agencies in Illinois to offer Harken Health from its beginnings in the Chicagoland marketplace."

Health insurance producers who are interested in offering Harken Health to individual and families needing on- or off-exchange health plans, should contact a Flex General Agency sales consultant at (888) 353-9178.
