Health Coverage for Musicians: eHealth, Inc. Announces Partnership With TuneCore to Provide Musicians With Access to Affordable Health Insurance MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA--(Marketwire - 11/11/09) - Today, eHealth, Inc. (NASDAQ:EHTH - News),
parent company of eHealthInsurance.com (http://www.eHealthInsurance.com),
the leading online source of health insurance for
individuals, families, and small businesses, announced a partnership with
TuneCore, a leading online provider of marketing and distribution services
for independent musicians.
This partnership will also allow TuneCore musicians to get free health insurance quotes, compare over 10,000 health insurance products from over 180 carriers nation-wide, and purchase quality health insurance products at TuneCore.com through an online, paperless process. TuneCore musicians will also have the option to call a dedicated call center where they can speak to a health insurance agent licensed in their state. "The amount of time and hard work musicians put into their music and their careers is significant. If you get sick and wind up out of commission it can be difficult; on tour it can be a disaster," said Jeff Price, CEO and co-founder of TuneCore. "I view it as our job to provide musicians, bands and artists with as much information as possible so that they can make informed decisions. Healthcare in this country can be extremely confusing. eHealth is simply the best company I have ever worked with when it comes to providing education, information and access to healthcare. I was thrilled to have them agree to be there for TuneCore Artists." "eHealth is committed to helping Americans get the health coverage they need, which is why we've partnered with over 1,000 affiliates like TuneCore that help deliver high-quality products and services, including health insurance, to their unique constituent groups," said Bruce Telkamp eHealth's Executive Vice President of Business and Corporate Development. "TuneCore provides an outstanding, unique service to musicians, and has established itself as a trusted resource in that community. We're honored to be partnering with a trusted and well-respected service provider like TuneCore."
