MIAMI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 18, 2004

Care Access Health Plan is a Florida Licensed, Pre-Paid,

Affordable Health Plan for Employers and Individuals

Needing Health Care Coverage

Care Access Health Plan has unveiled

a unique and affordable health plan that provides coverage for a wide range of routine and preventive medical services, outside the hospital, for a third of the cost of traditional programs.

Designed to help meet the needs of the uninsured, Care Access provides coverage for small businesses and their employees, as well as for individuals. The new Health Plan is available in Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach counties.

A limited, pre-paid health plan licensed by the State of Florida Office of Insurance Regulation, Care Access offers a network of primary and specialty physicians, urgent care centers, diagnostic services, ambulatory and surgical services, behavioral health, hearing and vision services.

Low-cost hospital and dental supplements that complement the health plan are available through select carriers.

Care Access is a practical healthcare alternative for the hundreds of thousands of uninsured people throughout the tri-county area. It is designed for working and non-working individuals, entrepreneurs and their employees, young workers, students, recent graduates, self-employed and part-time workers, as well as South Florida's part-time residential community, tourists, and new arrivals regardless of citizenship status.

"Care Access is the first realistic, accessible alternative for the uninsured," says company president Gerald B. Sternstein. "With monthly premiums beginning at $55, we're a viable entry point to healthcare coverage for a large segment of the uninsured population. We are a significant asset for the small business owner who can't find affordable healthcare coverage.

"We want the people who typically fall through the net and do not have any options, to have a chance to access the coverage they deserve, and to take control of their health," added Sternstein.
