We price the same three funding models big benefits teams evaluate, built for teams of 1 to 50.
No long process and no cost to you. Most Ohio groups go from census to quotes in days.
Ages and ZIP codes for whoever would enroll. No medical history required up front, and asking for a quote commits you to nothing.
We price the fully-insured plans open to your group in Ohio against level-funded and ICHRA alternatives, then show you the trade-offs in plain numbers.
Once you choose, we handle onboarding, answer your employees' questions directly, and come back every year to re-shop the renewal instead of rubber-stamping it.
Insurance is regulated state by state, so the honest answer to "what will this cost" always starts local.
Ohio enrolls Marketplace plans through the federal exchange, Healthcare.gov. There is no separate state exchange, and group and off-exchange options are sold outside it entirely.
Ohio expanded Medicaid, so adults up to about 138% of the federal poverty level generally qualify. For entry-wage roles that can change whether the group plan is the right home for someone.
Ohio has one of the more competitive small-group markets in the Midwest, with several carriers active across the major metros. That competition is real leverage at renewal, but only if someone actually re-shops your group.
Ohio provides an independent external review process through the Ohio Department of Insurance when a carrier denies a claim. It's worth knowing before you need it, and it's one of the practical differences between a plan bought with guidance and one bought off a screen.
Carriers file rates by rating area, so the same plan prices differently across Columbus, Cleveland, Cincinnati, and Toledo. If your team is spread out, that spread shows up inside your own quote, and it is worth getting the census right.
Shopping for yourself rather than a team? Our Ohio individual and self-employed guide covers marketplace, off-exchange, and underwritten options.
These are not interchangeable, and the right one depends on your census. We quote all three.
One fixed premium, guaranteed issue for 1 to 50 employees, and no one on your team can be turned down for health reasons. The safest choice when you want certainty and a benefit that recruits.
Your monthly payment covers administration, stop-loss protection, and a claims fund sized to your group. Come in under expectations and part of that fund can come back to the business.
Instead of buying a plan, you fund a defined monthly allowance and employees choose their own coverage. Your budget is fixed by design and there are no participation minimums to hit.
A few of the industries that come to us most often here, and what tends to drive the decision in each.
Columbus and Toledo distribution hubs run on owner-operators and small fleets, where turnover makes waiting periods and participation planning matter.
How we approach it: We price fully insured against level funded on the real census, and say plainly which the roster supports.
Cleveland's medical economy supports a long tail of small practices, therapy groups, and support businesses whose staff know coverage well.
How we approach it: We quote every structure that could fit and spell out the trade-off in each rather than leading with one product.
Ohio's supplier base needs plans that hold up for skilled hourly workforces without pricing the company out at renewal.
How we approach it: We start by sorting who is actually eligible, then price only the structures that survive that answer.
Columbus law, accounting, and consulting firms compete for talent against large employers, so benefits are a hiring lever, not an afterthought.
How we approach it: We model the options side by side and tell you which one we would choose if it were our own payroll.
The questions Ohio owners actually ask us first.
One short form and a simple census is all we need. You'll get a real comparison across structures, at no cost, with no obligation to move.
