I’m all for supporting employees with health coverage but we’re one of the few “modern” countries in the world that have to add this to cost of goods sold.

Thank you so much for your very informative post, it cannot only help me but most of all those people who wants to build a small business but know nothing on how to pick the perfect health insurance policy that will suite their employees.

As long as we continue to overuse health insurance, the companies are more than happy to continue to increase the premiums. Stop thinking that you “must” have everyday insurance, and go with global coverage only. Works just fine.

I agree. Find yourself a reputable insurance agent from your friends in business who are involved in insurance purchasing. Or interview several yourself. You can change agents at any time. An experienced agent knows the market and the tax advantaged options for your business.

My premium is going up 45% this fall, but there may be some Massachusetts funny stuff involved.

For small businesses that are not confident in picking health care policies the thing to do is work with an experienced independent insurance agent who is not tied to a particular company.

Picking an insurance policy may be the least of it. Small business owners that we have interviewed in the past couple of months report huge increases coming in their policies that are prompting them to rethink employee coverage.

2010 could be like the “Perfect Storm” for health insurance for small business with surging rates and continuing low business revenues.
