you know cozy has been creating health
insurance
for almost 45 years and over the last
several years we've all had
requirements of the Affordable Care Act
and that is really limited choice for a
lot of small business owners in fact
over the last few years we've told many
of you to stay in your current plans
exercising your opportunity be part of a
grandfathered plan or transitional group
plan to sort of wait out what happens
with the Affordable Care Act as of
January 1st 2018 you're going to have to
make a move from those transitional
plans well you can still keep your
grandfathered plan those transitional
00:38
plans will no longer be available so
look at the last year we've been working
very closely with a set of advisors with
Medical Mutual with consultants and
actuaries to create something new for
you that can continue to provide our
tradition of great health insurance
benefits for small business and we've
come up with the cose health and
wellness trust this is a new multiple
employer welfare arrangement available
for small business owners with less than
50 employees targeted right at the needs
that they have with flexible benefit
options that will really give them
choice returning us once again to an
01:10
environment where you can get a better
rate for your better risk of your
employees and you're not locked into the
specific structures and specific
restrictions of the Affordable Care Act
because the other one was trusts may be
the right fit for your business but
you'll have to talk with your broker or
talk with one of our representatives on
the cose team Medical Mutual about the
specific fit with your business a
self-funded plan is a little bit
different than a fully insured plan it's
got some different requirements around
it and some different responsibilities
but we think we've put something
together that makes it very manageable
for you as a small business thanks and
