Insurance
Small Business/Group health insurance allows
employer groups or other qualifying organizations to obtain
health insurance as a group by spreading risks and costs across
a number of individuals and their dependents. Typically, group
health insurance is less expensive than Individual and Family
health insurance, and you cannot be turned down for coverage
based upon the medical histories or conditions of the group’s
members. In fact, group health coverage is referred to as
"guaranteed issue" coverage. So long as you qualify as a
"group" under the law, you cannot be turned down for
coverage. Looking for Affordable Health Insurance?

Small Business/Group health insurance coverage is a
valuable tool for employers, often helping them to hire and
retain the best workers and encourage overall employee health,
which can lead to increased production. There are valuable tax
incentives available to employers who offer group health
insurance, incentives which can help the employer to mitigate
the cost of providing such coverage. Costs are typically split
between the employer and the employee, though the employer may
opt to cover for employee’s full monthly premium.

Quotes are readily available here.
Most plans require that the employer cover at least 50% of
the employee’s monthly premium. Small Business/Group health
insurance plans come in the same variety of choices that one
finds in the Individual and Family health insurance market,
indemnity and managed-care plans, the latter including HMO,
PPO, and POS plans. Go Paperless. Submit your health
