The SHOP Minimum Participation Rate is Waived for a Limited Time!

The Small Business Health Options Program (SHOP) minimum participation rate is waived until December 15! During this time, your small business can enroll in SHOP coverage without having to meet the minimum participation rate requirement. This allows you to offer a SHOP plan to your employees, even if you don’t meet the required number of participating employees.

After December 15, your small business will need to meet your state’s minimum participation requirement to enroll in SHOP insurance. In most states, at least 70% of employees who are offered coverage must accept the offer, or have other qualifying coverage, before your small business can enroll. 

Need help with SHOP coverage? Use Find Local Help to search for SHOP-registered agents or brokers in your area who can help you apply for and enroll in a SHOP plan – generally at no cost to you. You can also sign up directly with a private insurance company that offers SHOP coverage.
