IRVING, Texas -

The American Recovery Association is looking to help members with one of the most important benefits repossession agencies can offer their employees.

This week, ARA, in partnership with Harding Brooks Insurance Agency, announced the newest member benefit: a national, cost-effective health insurance program open to all members.

“A rich benefits package is key in retaining quality employees and obtaining health insurance for small businesses has not always been an easy option,” ARA president Dave Kennedy said in a news release. “ARA is always working to find ways to add value to our membership, and we are thrilled to now offer a cost-effective insurance program for the recovery industry.”

Harding Brooks will serve as ARA’s one-stop-shop in an effort to ensure members are getting the best rates possible. This includes educating ARA members and staff on coverages, deductibles and co-pays while putting together the best plan from top healthcare providers across the country.

“Harding Brooks is excited to offer an exclusive health care policy for the collateral recovery industry,” said Mike Peplinski, vice president of Harding Brooks Insurance Agency. “I’d like to thank ARA for their assistance, which was instrumental in this process.”

Members should contact Peplinski at Harding Brooks at (315) 214-5822 to discuss which health care plan is the best option for their company and employees.

ARA also recently announced a guaranteed $10,000 ($20,000 accidental death, no questions asked) life insurance policy that covers every executive member, and coverage is available for all employees at cost.

More offerings are expected to roll out in the coming months, ARA said.
