What Is Group Health Insurance?

Group health insurance are plans that can be used to provide coverage for groups of people in an organization or company. Members of these groups can receive this coverage at a reduced cost because the premiums are divided among the group. For companies or organizations to obtain group health insurance for their members or employees, there are requirements that the business must meet. These requirement include but are not limited to, participation, % of contribution, number of employees, number of hours worked

Group health insurance plans may also come in tiers, meaning that some may choose a basic option of coverage or a more comprehensive choice. Businesses can choose to offer ancillary products such as Dental, Vision, Life, Short term and Long term Disability.

Because the plan is spread across multiple individuals, this helps keep premium payments low and gives insurers better risk management. But the most significant benefit of group health insurance is that it ensures members and employees are happy and have the coverage they deserve.

Group health insurance can also benefit employers. When businesses offer to pay part of their employees’ premiums, this can qualify the business to receive a credit back on their taxes, which serves as compensation for the money paid out towards the premiums.

 

While this can vary by carrier, the rule of thumb is a group is considered 2 or more. This is defined by eligible employee’s. What is an eligible employee, a w2 or 1099 employees that works 30 or more hours per week for the business.
