Affiordable Health Insurance for Small Business Owners and Self-Employed
The Insurance Partnership, a program created by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, makes health insurance more affordable for qualified small business owners (including the self-employed) with lower-income employees. It is not a health plan itself.
To qualify a business must:
- Employ 50 or fewer full-time employees (or be self-employed)
- Offer (or plan to offer) comprehensive health insurance to its employees
- Contribute (or be willing to contribute) at least 50% of the cost of the insurance purchased by the employee
To qualify an employee must:
- Be a resident of Massachusetts between the ages of 19 and 64 (inclusive)
- Receive or plan to receive comprehensive health insurance through his or her qualified employer
- Have a family income below twice the Federal Poverty Level
