COVID-19 isn't
just impacting health — it's also affecting the way you do business.
Supporting you and helping you protect your business and employees in
uncertain times is our priority. We're here to help with two important
resources you can use when it comes to your finances.
First and foremost, we understand that you're balancing a lot during
this time. Anthem has electronic payment options that make it even
easier for you to do business with us. These methods pull funds
directly from your checking account:
- Online payment through EmployerAccess. We initiate the electronic ACH transaction
after you log in and confirm the recurring payment.
- EFT/ACH payment. Instead of writing out a paper check or
initiating a debit or credit card transaction, the money moves
automatically when you initiate the one-time transaction.
Call your
regular service number to set up an electronic bill pay option. If
you'd like to discuss your billing options, please call Broker
Services.
The second resource is the information you'll need to apply for
financial assistance from the Small Business Administration (SBA).
You'll need 12 months of billing statements if you decide to apply for
SBA assistance. You can find them in EmployerAccess. If you need help,
ask your broker or Anthem representative.
The SBA has several programs available to help you through the COVID-19
crisis. The SBA website provides an overview of the
programs, and the following links will take you to information
critically important to you as a small business owner:
Supporting you
is an important part of our business. We're here to help. If you'd like
more information about the financial resources we've discussed here,
please contact your broker or Anthem representative.
