Health insurance is one of the most important benefits that employers can offer prospective employees.
Surveys show that favorable benefit packages attract quality employees.
This new program provides access to insurance coverage for eligible small business employees. The program is available to small employers with 50 or fewer employees, who have not offered group health insurance during the previous 12 month period. Individuals and sole proprietors may also be eligible for the program. Healthy New York will provide hundreds of thousands of uninsured New Yorkers and their families comprehensive insurance coverage. The package will include coverage for inpatient and outpatient hospital services, physician diagnostic and treatment services, maternity care, preventative and primary care, as well as a prescription plan.
