Leave a comment

According to the Department of Labor statistics, healthcare businesses are leading the way out of the current economic recession. Healthcare Business Solutions, an Eagan, Minnesota based company is part of the healthcare expansion process.

Saint Paul, MN (USA), April 03, 2013 — On March 11, 2013, the Department of Labor Statistics showed that healthcare businesses had created 32,000 new jobs in February. This was 13.6% of the total US jobs created for the month. Healthcare Business Solutions, a local company in Eagan, Minnesota is part of the healthcare expansion leading the country out of the recession.

Tunisia Irby, the owner of Healthcare Business Solutions, started her medical billing business for chiropractors and mental health practitioners in 2007. She has now outgrown her space in Eagan. On April 1st, Healthcare Business Solutions will move to a larger location where additional medical billing clerks will be employed as her business continues to expand to meet the new demands of the healthcare industry.

When asked why healthcare businesses jobs continue to grow, Ms Irby said the healthcare expansion comes from several areas. “As the population ages, there is a need for more healthcare services. There is also a shift in medical practice as more jobs shift to tech support, medical secretaries and medical records experts so staff like registered nurses, therapists and doctors can spend more time with patients.”

In addition, Irby added, “We have the 2010 Affordable Care Act (Obama Care) that will be fully implemented in October of 2013. Initially this implementation will create additional medical jobs at all levels.”

Ms Irby also noted that electronic medical records are changing the healthcare landscape. As new electronic record systems are implemented, new opportunities open for businesses like Healthcare Business Solutions ( http://www.healthcarebizsol.com ). They can electronically do the billing and coding from their own offices to a serve a much wider geographic area.

Florida Power & Light Company Partners with Food Distributor Cheney Brothers to support 300 Jobs in Southwest Florida

Leave a comment

Florida Power & Light Company’s special discounted economic development rate will help Cheney Brothers Inc., launch a $100 million distribution center in Charlotte County that will eventually employ about 300 people when it’s fully operational.

Juno Beach, FL (June 28, 2012) — Florida Power & Light Company‘s special discounted economic development rate will help Cheney Brothers Inc., one of the largest food service distributors in the Southeastern United States, launch a $100 million distribution center in Charlotte County that will eventually employ about 300 people when it’s fully operational.

Cheney Brothers is in the process of purchasing 35 acres right off Interstate 75 in Punta Gorda, for the new facility, which will serve customers from Marco Island through the Tampa Bay area.

“We need all the help from all the partners we can get, whether it’s our customer partners or our vendor partners, like Florida Power & Light,” said Bill Foley, President of Cheney Brothers, which is headquartered in Riviera Beach, Fla.

Businesses in FPL’s service territory already benefit from electric bills that are among the very lowest in the state and well below the national average. FPL’s economic development rates provide an additional benefit to new or expanding businesses that expand their electric demand by at least 350 kilowatts and create at least 10 new jobs.

“We’re pleased to play a role in Cheney Brothers’ expansion,” said Lynn Pitts, FPL Director of Economic Development. “FPL’s economic development rate provides an incentive to companies that agree to move to Florida or expand their operations here and create new jobs for Floridians.”

“The discount we get from Florida Power & Light is essential,” Foley said. “Along with fuel, our electric bill is probably our next biggest expense that we have at Cheney Brothers. So that discount helps us out initially and in the long-run also.”

The economic development rate is designed to be an incentive that will encourage new investment and job creation in Florida. Eligible business customers receive a declining discount on their standard base energy and demand charges over four to five years.
