NationsBenefits and TS Emporium Partnership
Enhances Healthcare Access for Diverse Populations in Los
Angeles
NationsBenefits, the market leader in supplemental benefits and
healthcare fintech solutions, today announced a new partnership
with Tak Shing Hong dba TS Emporium, the largest provider of
traditional Chinese medicine, American Ginseng, and Asian
delicacies in the United States. The partnership allows Medicare
Advantage and Medicaid members to use their NationsBenefits
Benefits Mastercard® Prepaid Card* at any of the five TS Emporium's
locations in the greater Los Angeles area to purchase approved
healthy foods, groceries, pantry staples, and general wellness
essentials. Adding TS Emporium to NationsBenefits' retail network
means members will be able to use their prepaid card at their
preferred retailer in their own neighborhoods.
Starting June 15, 2024, members can enjoy the benefits of this
partnership with a seamless shopping experience at TS Emporium
locations in City of Industry, Rowland Heights, Monterey Park, and
San Gabriel. This initiative reflects NationsBenefits' mission to
eliminate barriers to healthcare access by serving diverse and
unique populations at the local and community levels.
"We are thrilled to partner with TS Emporium, a staple in the
Los Angeles community for over 40 years," said Michael Parker, COO
of NationsBenefits. "This collaboration not only provides members
with greater access to nutritious food products and essential
wellness items but also supports our goal of serving diverse
communities with culturally relevant options. This partnership
allows members to get the most out of their benefits by enabling
healthier choices at point-of-sale.”
“Our goal is to promote the benefits of American Ginseng,
traditional Chinese medicine, and nutritious goods so everyone can
enjoy healthier lives. By partnering with NationsBenefits, we can
better serve the health of our community by offering far more
convenient access to these essential products. We are extremely
proud to join the NationsBenefits retail network to expand the
reach of our products to more people, especially in the effort to
support the local communities that our stores serve,” said Caroline
Jang of TS Emporium’s Media Department.
The NationsBenefits Benefits Mastercard® Prepaid Card* program
equips health plan members with a personalized prepaid card that
allows easy access to funds distributed monthly, quarterly, or
annually to purchase eligible items and services. This initiative
is part of NationsBenefits' broader strategy to promote food as
medicine, empowering members to make healthier choices and drive
better health outcomes.
