Enroll in 2018 Coverage

The Small Business Health Options Program (SHOP) gives you the flexibility and power to control the health and/or dental coverage you offer to your employees. When enrolling in SHOP coverage, choices you’ll make along the way include: Whether to offer health coverage, dental coverage, or both Whether to offer your employees one plan or a choice of plans Whether to offer coverage to part-time employees How much you will contribute toward your employees’ premiums Whether to offer coverage to your employees’ dependents When coverage starts If you sign up before December 15, your coverage will begin on January 1 and you will not have to meet a minimum participation rate (MPR) to enroll. This means you can get coverage even if only some of your employees accept your offer.
