AFFORDABLE HEALTH INSURANCE
The IWWG, which has not been able to offer health insurance to its members for seven years because of changes in the health care industry, is happy to announce that comprehensive health insurance coverage is now available to members in New York City. Atlantis Health Plan offers cost-effective, comprehensive medical and hospital coverage within the five boroughs. In addition to a growing network of physicians and hospitals, members have access to state-of-the-art Atlantis Medical Group offices located in every borough. These office visits are available at no co-payment to members. Atlantis is the only health insurance company in New York City owned and operated by physicians. For more information, call IWWG at (212)737-7536, and let us know what health insurance coverage you are seeking.
We hope this is the beginning of IWWG's being able to offer health insurance to all our members regardless of where they reside.
