Do you work with businesses in Friendswood?
Yes. PCI Solutions serves Friendswood employers from our Houston office at 5920 Star Lane, Houston, TX 77057, not a local branch. Call 713-329-6944 to discuss your workforce, budget, providers and enrollment. We can help compare options and review enrollment changes and renewal; coverage and claims decisions remain with the insurer.

What should a small Texas employer check before offering coverage?
Texas small-employer coverage generally applies to businesses with 2–50 employees, subject to insurer eligibility. Confirm contributions and participation with the carrier. See our small-business health insurance guide; ACA employer obligations use a different full-time-equivalent calculation, explained in our ACA employer requirements guide.

How should we prepare to compare group health insurance costs?
Prepare a current employee census, contribution budget, desired start date, renewal documents and requested providers. A workforce-specific quote is needed; a nearby hospital does not establish a price or network. See our group health insurance cost guide for the comparison steps.

Should a Friendswood network search include a requested Clear Lake hospital?
Yes, if employees request it, check it explicitly rather than searching only under Friendswood. Methodist lists Clear Lake Hospital at 18300 Houston Methodist Dr., Houston, TX 77058. This verifies a location, not participation in your plan; confirm the exact network, campus and doctors.

How does a new Friendswood business set up employee health coverage?
The city publishes the FM 528 Strategy as a 2013 planning resource, not an insurance plan. A business locating along that corridor must establish its own eligible census, contribution budget and requested effective date with the insurer.

Where can Friendswood employers verify benefits enrollment requirements?
Use the city's economic development resources for property, incentives and planning, and the insurer's documents for eligibility and enrollment. Friendswood publishes target-market and development resources; they do not confirm a medical network or pay employee premiums.
