MISSION, Kan., Jan. 18, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- COBRAGuard Inc., a certified COBRA administrator, announces its sponsorship of the Health Insurance Advocate Show, the nation's only radio program dedicated to providing the latest information surrounding the national healthcare debate. The show, hosted by its creator and president, Cary F. Hall, is nationally syndicated and played on 58 radio stations coast to coast, reaching more than 2.5 million health insurance consumers.

"I've always been a fan of radio talk shows - especially those that pertain to business, so I'm very excited to have COBRAGuard sponsor of the Health Insurance Advocate Show," says COBRAGuard President Robert Meyers. "At COBRAGuard, we always strive to share information and educate clients so they can run their businesses more profitably. Our partnership with the Health Insurance Advocate Show clearly supports that goal. Cary Hall does a great job of keeping employers and families informed about healthcare matters."

The Health Insurance Advocate Show is a weekly one-hour program that provides listeners with facts and analysis about today's healthcare system. The radio show is broadcast nationwide, hitting the airwaves in such major cities as Portland, St. Louis, Chicago and New York. Its growth in listenership and recent syndication is evidence that the topic of healthcare is becoming a priority issue for all Americans.

On the show, Hall answers questions about affordability, eligibility, options and choices, preventative care, health and medical topics, and much more. He is especially knowledgeable about group and individual coverage, and regulations, offering an expertise and understanding to help his audience navigate the ever-changing healthcare system and make better decisions.

The sponsorship forms a marketing alliance between COBRAGuard and the Health Insurance Advocate Network and positions COBRAGuard as the first COBRA administrator to be on the air. The partnership will help COBRAGuard reach out to the show's growing audience, many of whom are business owners looking for cost-effective COBRA administration solutions. Hall says, "COBRA benefits are one of the most misunderstood areas of health insurance with the direst consequences for business owners if not administered in the correct manner. The exposure to government audits by the Department of Labor and Department of Insurance as well as potential employee lawsuits can be devastating to business owners. COBRAGuard has an ironclad system that absolutely protects employers from these dangers. I have been extremely impressed with the way COBRAGuard administers these benefits, serving employees and employers in a fair and equitable manner."

The Health Insurance Advocate Show broadcasts live every Saturday. Listen to streaming audio and podcasted shows at http://www.thehealthinsuranceadvocate.com.
