How your insurance rates are set
Who is this for?

If you've ever wondered how we decide what to charge for employer-sponsored health insurance, this article explains how rates are set.
Coverage, quality care and customer service are all critical factors when deciding on employer-sponsored health insurance. But we know in many cases, cost is most important.
How do we decide what to charge? Every business and organization is different. Your insurance rates will be too.
A business or organization is considered a small group if you have 50 or fewer eligible employees.
How insurance rates are set for small group plans
As part of the Affordable Care Act, your rates for small group plans will be based on:
- How many people are on the plan.
- Geographic area (where your business is headquartered).
- The age of those covered by the plan, with limits on how much members can be charged based on their age. For families, we only charge a premium for the three oldest children (up to age 21).
