The National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB), the nation’s largest small and independent business advocacy group, and eHealthInsurance.com, the number one online resource for health insurance, have announced an exclusive partnership that will allow small-business owners easy access to major health insurance options nationwide.

“The cost of health care is the single biggest concern of our members,” said Jack Farris, president and CEO of NFIB. “We jump at the opportunity to ease the burden small business owners face trying to find affordable health care.”

The NFIB’s website, www.nfib.com, will have a direct link to eHealthInsurance.com, so that NFIB members will be able to quickly and easily research, compare and purchase health insurance plans from a large number of leading health insurance carriers. Members will also have access to online and offline customer support through eHealthInsurance’s customer care representatives.

“Our goal is to make health insurance both affordable and attainable for small businesses and individuals,” said Gary Lauer, CEO of eHealthInsurance. “By partnering with NFIB, we enable hundreds of thousands of small employers nationwide to select and buy health plan coverage for themselves, their families and their employees.”.
