Eligible small employers could qualify for a tax credit worth up to 35% premiums paid in 2010. Yes 2010.  A trend we have seen over the past several years is employers dropping group health insurance.  Especially groups under 10 employees.  With this tax credit, it may make sense to reintroduce the idea of having a group health insurance benefit in a small business.  The percentage of tax credit goes up to 35% for businesses with less than 25 full time employees that make less than an average of $50k per year and 25% for non-profits. This could change the game for a lot of small employers, so if you have questions, call us today.
