The Basics
We quote groups between 5 - 250 enrolled employees only
We require a minimum participation of 50% (or 75% after eligible waivers)
We require a member-level census (i.e., name, DOB, gender, and zipcodes of dependents as well)
We don’t require IHQs but like to see claims experience if the group has any
We don’t cover 1099s, retirees, or part-time workers
We do not quote the following groups: cannabis-related groups, PEOs, and employee leasing/staffing firms.

State-Level Restrictions
We do not quote businesses based in WA, OK, DC, MI, MN, and NY.
