PBUCC programs include:

"In a time when increases in health care provider costs are averaging 10-12% annually, RHF is very pleased that in partnership with the PBUCC and CHHSM, in 2007 we were able to design a superior health insurance plan at a reasonable cost to both our team members and the corporation. Our nationwide team members are very pleased and participation has increased significantly. I'd recommend working with CHHSM and the PBUCC to address all of your benefit programs."
–Laverne R. Joseph, President and CEO, RHF

"After conducting an extensive bid/interview selection process for a 403(b) plan provider, Brooklawn chose the PBUCC. We saved about $10,000 per year in administrative costs and earn our employees (through lower fees) an average of 100 basis points per year on their investments. Good service... good price ... what else could you want?"
–David Graves, President and CEO, Brooklawn Child and Family Services

"Our pharmacy plan partnership with the Pension Boards-UCC and Medco has given United Church Homes the versatility we need to prudently manage this important employee benefit. We have received extraordinary service and saved tens of thousands of dollars to further our ministry to the aged population we serve. We continue to explore new partnership opportunities with the Pension Boards UCC."
–Brian Allen, President and CEO, United Church Homes
