Multiple Employer Welfare Arrangements (MEWAs) have been an active force in the employee benefits landscape since the 1970s, making health plans more flexible, accessible, and supportive for workers and their families. Unlike alternative group plans, MEWAs bring employers together for a common purpose – leveraging collective power to secure quality, cost-effective healthcare coverage through risk-sharing pools.
If you are a business owner who is looking for comprehensive insurance solution, consider a Multiple Employer Welfare Arrangement (MEWA). This innovative collective insurance arrangement is available to businesses in Ohio and members of a chamber of commerce, offering a strategic approach to providing group health and other insurance options to employees.
Employers typically determine how much to pay for their participation in a MEWA based on several factors, including the number of employees they have enrolled, the level of coverage they choose, and any additional services they may opt for. Additionally, MEWAs often have fixed monthly costs that employers contribute, along with potential adjustments based on factors such as claims experience and usage throughout the year.
