Group Health Insurance Plans That Help You Attract, Retain, and Support Your Team
Offering health insurance is one of the most impactful decisions a small business owner can make. It’s a competitive advantage when hiring, a retention tool for your best employees, and a benefit that shows your team you’re invested in their well-being, not just their productivity.
At PHX Insurance Advisors, we help small and mid-sized businesses across Arizona compare group health insurance options and build benefit packages that work for both employers and employees.
The reality for small businesses in Arizona is clear: talent is competitive, and benefits play a major role in where people choose to work. According to industry data, over 55% of employees consider health benefits a deciding factor when evaluating job offers.
For businesses that don’t offer health coverage, the consequences can include:
Offering group health insurance doesn’t have to be complicated or unaffordable. With the right guidance, even businesses with a handful of employees can find plans that fit their budget while providing meaningful coverage for their team.
We help business owners evaluate and compare several types of group health insurance:
Traditional group health plans are purchased by the business and offered to eligible employees. The employer typically contributes a portion of the premium, with employees paying the remainder through payroll deductions. Group plans often provide better rates than individual coverage because risk is spread across the group.
Level-funded plans are an increasingly popular option for small businesses. They combine elements of self-funded and fully insured plans, offering more predictable monthly costs while providing the potential for savings if the group has a healthy claims year. These plans are particularly attractive for businesses with 5 to 50 employees.
Beyond health insurance, many businesses choose to offer additional benefits including dental, vision, life insurance, and supplemental coverage. Bundling these benefits often results in better rates and gives employees a more comprehensive benefits package.
For businesses that want to contribute to employee health coverage without managing a group plan, health reimbursement arrangements allow employers to reimburse employees for individual health insurance premiums and qualified medical expenses on a tax-advantaged basis.
Navigating small business health insurance involves several considerations:
We guide you through each of these factors so you understand your options and obligations before making any commitments.
