Health Insurance Information for Small Business

As the national health care debate continues in Congress and health care costs continue to rise, now is the time for small and medium sized businesses to begin exploring options for their employees.

For information on this issue check out this great post from Daniel Kehrer on Health Insurance Basics for Small Business. In his article Daniel provides a simple overview of health care plan choices for small businesses, and also offers tips for controlling health care costs.

As the article points out, small group health insurance is regulated by the states. For information specific to our region, visit the Finger Lakes BIC.

Many local Chambers of Commerce also provide group health insurance as a benefit to their members. Find the chamber representing your town and contact them today for specific information.
