Can Small Businesses in the U.S. Join a Federation To Save on Health Insurance Costs?
I work for a small business, and our healthcare premiums are sky high because insurance companies don't give small businesses any breaks, but they do larger businesses that have thousands of employees. Can Small Businesses in the U.S. Join a Federation To Save on Health Insurance Costs? If anyone knows of any, can you tell me the name of them, so I can look them up. Something like the National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB). I see they address healthcare, but I don't see them offering some kind of healthcare pool to members.
I know of capitation such that doctors' fees are reduced by cutting costs in their facilities by the number of patients served. Of course health insurance in the small business sector is high. Maybe its high so that sb can hire more people and get the discounts. Only my opinion, just a thought.

Can anyone explain the Affordable Care Act to me?I was honestly going to make a Hub about this, asking this very question, and I had written 800 something words on the subject. Ok actually it's more like a mild rant, but I think this would be better as a Hubpages question rather than a Hub that no...

Do you believe that the nuisance known as Obamacare will finally be repealed? Why? Why not?I believe that the government SHOULD NOT be in private affairs such as health care. I believe that health care is the sole responsibility of the individual. If individuals want health care,...

This is an unscientific poll.I am curious to know the answers to four very simple questions:1. Do you have health insurance now?2. Who pays the premium (main monthly cost) of your health insurance?e.g., employer, government program, you, other3. If you didn't have insurance through a group...
