"Starting in 2014, workers at companies with fewer than 100 employees were supposed to have been able to choose from a variety of health plans through new small-business insurance marketplaces. They'll instead wait until at least 2015, according to regulations released by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services."

"The bill would allow the establishment of nationwide 'association health plans' that could be offered by professional or trade groups, chambers of commerce and the like. Small businesses could buy coverage through these associations, in theory gaining strength in numbers to enhance their bargaining leverage with insurers, leading to cheaper, better coverage and lower administrative costs. The Small Business Health Fairness Act of 2017 is slated to head to the House floor this week."

"The State of Vermont and the District of Columbia [have] proposed a requirement that would force all individuals and small business to purchase coverage through [their] Exchange[s]. We are concerned that these proposals will result in less consumer choice and higher costs for many businesses and individuals. We are also concerned that the mandatory small business requirement conflicts with the text of PPACA that requires participation in the Exchange to be voluntary."

"On the Covered California website, firms [with under 50 employees] can compare health insurance plans and choose what to offer to employees. Their workers can then select from among different plans.... Many companies will be able to receive a tax credit, meaning the federal government will help cover their portion of the employee premiums. To be eligible for tax credits, businesses must have fewer than 25 full-time employees, pay employees less than $50,000 a year and cover at least half of the full-time employees' premiums."

Florida Health Choices was created in 2008 by the state legislature ? with the idea of promoting competition and transparency in the health insurance market to bring prices down for small businesses. But it is still not operational. It was set to open this past summer, but has been delayed as it continues to try to recruit health insurance companies to sign up and offer their products.

"[This dataset] includes information such as whether a particular state's SHOP exchange considers the self-employed as a small business, whether the individual and SHOP exchanges are merged, and whether a particular state's SHOP exchange is a passive or active purchaser.... Much like the exchanges for individual consumers, there is a great deal of variation in small business exchanges across states."

"To be successful, SHOP exchanges need to attract sufficient participation among small businesses to establish a broad, stable risk pool and to be self-sustaining. To this end, they will need to demonstrate value by relieving employers of some administrative burdens and, more important, by moderating cost increases. States will also need to ensure that there is a level playing field in terms of regulations and premium rating for plans sold both inside and outside of the exchange." [Updated Feb. 2014; originally published Feb. 2012]

"In the 17 states doing their own marketplaces, 15 intend to offer the choice model, as will the District of Columbia ... Idaho is not including an employee-choice program because it is using the federal marketplaces' information technology platform, which will not include it. New Mexico is still considering its options."
