About Us

AAOA Healthcare is the employer benefit offering of Affiliated Associations of America (AAOA). AAOA is a membership organization, providing a suite of member benefits to Associations and Professional Membership organizations. Member benefits include an Association Health Plan, administered by Affiliated Services LLC, a nationally recognized insurance agency and association plan administrator, providing strategic solutions to address today's changing environment for businesses and Association Health Plans. Located in Kirkland, Washington, Affiliated Services/AAOA Healthcare is one of the largest specialty employee benefit agencies in the Seattle area. AAOA Healthcare was founded in 2002 with the development of proprietary administration software for Association Health Plan administration. The software was created specifically to provide a fixed administrative approach for group medical, dental, vision, and life coverage for fully insured groups. In May of 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, and 2013 AAOA Healthcare was awarded Platinum status by UnitedHealthcare. This award recognizes the quality of service provided to clients and honors the innovations in technology introduced into the healthcare system. Affiliated Services/AAOA Healthcare is the only agency in Washington State to be recognized with this designation in five consecutive years.

Our Approach  

Healthcare reform introduces a new set of challenges for businesses to continue to provide quality benefits for employees. AAOA Producer/Consultants are committed to educating clients on how to purchase healthcare benefits effectively. They listen to clients to determine their goals and objectives and assist them in developing a "Healthcare Management Strategy." This strategy is a plan for the next 3-5 years of how the company will address the cost and selection of benefits each year as the economics and demographics of the company change. Once the Healthcare Management Strategy has been developed, the Producer/Consultant will assist the employer in conducting a company wide employee wellness survey. The survey is done on a confidential basis so the employer will not have access to any employee's personal information. The surveys are then submitted to our underwriting team for review and analysis. Based upon the surveys, the Producer/Consultants provide employers with information on how the plan is currently being used, what product designs and benefits are appropriate for the group, and what wellness programs and communications would be beneficial for the company to implement as a part of the benefit plan. With this information, any recommendations made by a Producer/Consultant to a client will be based upon current data, and the Healthcare Management Strategy, not assumptions and guesses. As a part of our commitment to transparency any recommendations made will provide full and complete financial disclosure. The insight this process provides an employer is very valuable in making important decisions about benefits and may be the difference in recruiting and retaining employees. We are dedicated to providing the leadership for change in healthcare, innovation and technology to improve the experience for the employers and employees that we serve. Let AAOA Healthcare help you develop strategic solutions to move your business and employees forward. Join us as we change employee benefits.
