The Integrated Benefits Institute recently released a report showing that chief financial officers take it upon themselves to be involved in healthcare benefits and how they are allocated to their workers.

Close to two-thirds of those CFOs noted that good health is important to their organization, while more than nine in 10 think that a healthcare plan for workers helps improve productivity in the office, according to the report.

Additionally, approximately 80 percent of CFOs noted they take part in some sort of aspect of healthcare decisions for their company.

"This research shows how CFOs crystallize the impact of health on financial performance and on productivity, and particularly focuses on the kinds of information critical to their health-investment decisions," said Dr. Thomas Parry, president of IBI.

If there is a lack of health insurance coverage availability at a person's workplace, or the plan offered is not what one is looking for, it's advised to compare affordable health insurance rates to find something that is inexpensive, but gives a person what they need.
