Plan Options

Group Health Plan Options

PPO (Preferred Provider Organization)

Offers maximum flexibility with access to a large network of healthcare providers. Employees can see specialists without referrals and can seek care outside the network with higher out-of-pocket costs. Ideal for businesses seeking broad provider access and employee choice.

HMO (Health Maintenance Organization)

Emphasizes preventive care and coordination through primary care physicians. Lower premiums and predictable costs, but requires selecting an in-network provider and obtaining referrals for specialists. Great for cost-conscious employers and employees.

HDHP (High Deductible Health Plan)

Lower premiums paired with higher deductibles. Qualifies for Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) that allow tax-advantaged savings for medical expenses. Excellent for employers seeking to reduce premium costs while enabling employees to build medical savings.

EPO (Exclusive Provider Organization)

Combines features of HMO and PPO plans. Employees use in-network providers without referrals, but coverage is limited to the network. Offers a balance of cost control and flexibility. Popular among mid-sized employers.

Common Questions

Group Health Insurance FAQs

What types of group health plans can a Minnesota business offer?

The most common options are PPO, HMO, HDHP, and EPO plans, each balancing premiums, provider networks, and flexibility differently. Many businesses also consider an ICHRA, which reimburses employees for individual plans they choose themselves instead of enrolling everyone in one group plan. We compare all of these against your budget and workforce.

What is an ICHRA?

ICHRA stands for Individual Coverage Health Reimbursement Arrangement. Your business sets a tax-free monthly allowance, each employee buys their own individual health plan, and you reimburse their premiums up to the allowance. It gives the employer a predictable budget and gives employees their choice of plan.

How many employees do we need to offer group health insurance?

Fewer than most owners expect. Small group plans are built for small teams, though carrier requirements vary, and an ICHRA has no minimum company size or participation requirement at all. If you have even one employee, there is an option that can work.

What does working with a broker cost?

Typically nothing extra. Brokers are generally compensated by the insurance carriers, so your premium is the same whether you enroll through us or directly. You get plan comparison, enrollment support, compliance help, and year-round service on top.
