Case Study:

Mr. Job Bob owns a small business that sells medical equipment. He has nine employees and has always made it a priority to offer competitive benefits, including health insurance. Unfortunately, last year one of his employees was diagnosed with Cancer, which he continues to fight. Due to the sharp increase in use of health services by his employee group, the insurance company doubled his group premiums for upcoming year. When Mr. Jib Bob contacted others carriers, several of them would not consider insuring his group, and most of the others gave him quotes as expensive as his current carrier. After reviewing his company’s finances, Mr. Bob is left with several unattractive options:

  1. Stop Offering Health

  2. Offer Comprehensive health insurance but pass on the cost increase to his employees, which would make it unaffordable or most of them.

  3. Offer the bare-bones catastrophic plan only,

  4. Significantly lower wages and others benefits to defray the rising health insurance costs.
