Get more from your group health plan with additional benefits, tax savings, and help with ACA compliance
Offering group health insurance makes more sense now than ever. Affordable health insurance ranked first in a national survey asking employees which benefits would entice them to stay at their current job. That’s hardly surprising, as health insurance premiums continue to rise. For an average family, annual premiums reached over $18,000 in 2016. Rising rates hurt employers too, as they paid almost $13,000 per family toward that coverage.
When you work with Paychex Insurance Agency, you can provide a cost-effective group health insurance program that compares with what larger companies can offer — helping you recruit and keep talented employees. And with uncertainty surrounding Affordable Care Act (ACA) requirements, we can provide compliance assistance that gives you peace of mind.
