The OSCA is pleased to offer group medical, dental, vision and life insurance option through Lifestyle Health Plans.  There are sixteen different benefit levels (see Lifestyle Health Proposal sample group PDF) available to meet a wide range of benefit needs and premium ranges (when you apply, all sixteen benefit plans are quoted for your convenience, along with the ancillary plans).  All plans offered are fully funded insurance plans, meet ACA guidelines and qualify as credible coverage.

Group insurance is available to employer groups of two or more employees; the plan may not cover individuals on their own.  Spouses in a family-owned practice may be considered two employees with completion of separate applications for coverage.  An employer will need to have roughly half of their eligible employees participate.  Employees that have coverage through a spouse, are on a subsidized health plan like Medicaid, have Medicare or are part-time need not be offered coverage.  Employers may request effective dates according to group size:

• Employers with 3 or more employees-first of the month, any month of the year.
• Employers with only 2 employees, first of month on quarterly start month:  January 1, April 1, July 1 or October 1 only.

The application process is easy and the OSCA have endorsed selected insurance professionals to work with you (please see the OSCA contact list).  The application usually takes 10-15 minutes for an individual to complete.
