/ Groups of 2 – 200 · Fully insured PPO

Group health for teams
that aren't enterprise yet.

Employer-sponsored PPO group plans from Anthem, BCBS, Cigna, UHC, and Aetna — five carriers compared, quotes in 48 hours, bound within the week. Or non-employer-sponsored group benefits that don't cost the business a dollar.

/01 Two paths

Pick the path
that fits the business.

Most agents only quote one. We'll show you both — and the math behind which one wins for your team size and revenue profile.

/02 What's included

Every group plan, decoded.

The standard build. We can add or strip tiers depending on your team profile.

/ 01

PPO networks

National-scale provider networks. Out-of-state employees are covered the same as your home base.
/ 02

Copay structure

Primary care, specialist, urgent care, and ER each on flat copays. Annual physical at 100%.
/ 03

Mental health parity

Therapy and psychiatry covered at the same copay tier as a medical specialist visit. Required and enforced.
/ 04

RX tiers

Generic, preferred brand, non-preferred brand, specialty. Most generics $0–$15. Specialty cap negotiated.
/ 05

Ancillary stack

Optional dental, vision, life, disability, accident, critical illness — bundled to one bill if you want it that way.
/ 06

Compliance

ACA-compliant. ERISA documents, SBC distribution, and SPDs handled. We walk you through what you owe the IRS and what we owe you.
/03 Timeline

Two days for quotes.
One week to bind.

From the initial census to ID cards in your employees' hands.

/ DAY 1

Census

You send a census (a simple spreadsheet — we provide the template). We open quote requests with all five carriers.

/ DAY 3

Quotes

Five carriers, three plan tiers each, mapped onto a single comparison sheet. We walk you through it on a call.

/ DAY 5

Choose

You pick the carrier and the contribution model. We prep enrollment paperwork and the compliance documents.

/ DAY 7

Bind

Employees enroll. We onboard them. Carrier issues policy and ID cards. Coverage starts the first of the next month.

/04 Owner questions

The questions
owners ask.

Five most common on the first call with a business owner.

What's the minimum group size?+

Two enrolled W-2 employees, including the owner, in most states. We can route single-owner shops onto the 1099 self-employed path if a true group plan doesn't work yet.

Do I have to contribute?+

No, not in the non-employer-sponsored path. In the traditional employer path, most carriers want at least 50% of the employee-only premium, but we'll model what works for your budget.

How does it interact with payroll?+

Most groups set up a pre-tax Section 125 deduction so the employee portion comes out before income tax. We can hand your payroll provider the exact setup instructions.

Will my current carrier match this?+

Sometimes. When we bring competitive quotes back to an incumbent, they'll often improve the renewal. We're happy to use that leverage on your behalf — you don't have to switch.

What about remote / multi-state teams?+

Standard. Our group plans run on national PPO networks, so an employee in Oregon and one in Florida are covered the same. We just verify state availability on the front end.
