AmeriLife® Partners with myHealthyUS to Support Florida Sheriffs Youth Ranches
Clearwater, FL (PRWEB) September 17, 2014 -- AmeriLife & Health Services, part of AmeriLife, the nation’s premier life, health and annuity insurance marketing group, recently partnered with myHealthyUS, an alternative health care program, in support of the Florida Sheriffs Youth Ranches.
“The support garnered from this relationship,” explains Wayne Witczak, Director of Development for the Florida Sheriffs Youth Ranches, “will benefit our Behavioral Health Overlay Services (BHOS), which is underfunded by approximately $2.5M per year due to state funding changes this year.”
This exciting sponsorship supports the myHealthyUS ‘Race to Give’ campaign to help benefit the Florida Sheriffs Youth Ranches, building awareness of the organization and encouraging donations through a mobile app promoted on the car, which raced in the July 4th Subway Firecracker 250 at Daytona International Speedway, and will make another run in the season-ending Homestead race in Miami this November.
“We are excited to partner with myHealthyUS, not only promoting its unique mental, physical and health plan support services,” explains AmeriLife Career Agencies President, David Rainwater, “but in supporting the Florida Sheriffs Youth Ranches, which is right in our backyard here at AmeriLife.”
A refreshing approach to healthcare, myHealthyUS provides a practical solution that takes advantage of the opportunities that technology offers. Not an insurance product or a discount program, myHealthyUS is a cost-effective avenue to receive medical support 24/7.
According to the American Medical Association, 70% of doctor office and emergency room visits are unnecessary. To help avoid unnecessary doctor and ER visits for things like a sinus infection, ear infection or upper respiratory infection, myHealthyUS and its MDhotline provide convenience and peace of mind, allowing your clients to speak with a qualified nurse and/or doctor to diagnose and help treat their concern.
Beyond its telemedicine platform, myHealthyUS also offers its members access to an online wellness program that provides them with a private user account, online health assessment, health reports, self-care tools, and a series of health improvement lessons, among other resources. Healthcare advocacy is also provided by myHealthyUS, comforting members with one-on-one personalized service to help navigate the healthcare system.
myHealthyUS will kick off a roadshow visiting AmeriLife offices throughout the state of Florida to help educate agents on the opportunities provided by the company’s convenient and cost-effective healthcare program. A replica of the Florida Sheriffs Youth Ranches No. 4 racecar will also join the roadshow to help create excitement around the campaign and encourage agents to share this exciting new platform with their clients. Affordable myHealthyUS membership options will be available to consumers through their AmeriLife agents soon.
“The future is here and we’re thrilled to be a part of it,” said Rainwater. “And all the while supporting the children served by the Florida Sheriffs Youth Ranches.”
