Group Insurance for Small Businesses
Many employers, including small businesses, decide to select and pay for health insurance for their employees. In fact, businesses with more than 50 full-time equivalents (FTE’s) are required to do so, or face a significant fine. The employer may cover a portion of their employees’ monthly health insurance premiums or the entire amount. The portion paid by employees may be deducted from their paychecks before tax, offering attractive savings. Health insurance is a valuable benefit for employees, offering convenience and peace of mind.
