Healthcare Initiatives

Healthcare Initiatives is a division of the Greater Jackson Chamber Partnership that was established to help promote and develop central Mississippi health care institutions and organizations.  This division will focus on new projects related to healthcare and promoting the Greater Jackson region as a healthcare destination.

Some of the long term goals of this division include establishing a working relationship with all major hospitals in the greater Jackson region, developing a major public relations campaign to help support the greater Jackson area as a major healthcare destination, and developing workplace wellness tools and programs that can be used for all small businesses throughout the state of Mississippi.  The Healthcare Initiatives division of the Greater Jackson Chamber Partnership is also currently working on supporting physician recruitment, research development, and the expansion of new research centers for the greater Jackson area.

The Healthcare Initiatives division also includes the ChamberPlus program which offers affordable health benefits, including life and dental, to small businesses with 1 to 50 employees through a partnership with BlueCross BlueShield of Mississippi.  ChamberPlus also provides other affinity programs through Office Depot and Laborchex.
