Small Business Health
Plans/AHPs
From
1957 through 1999, ABC enjoyed a distinguished history of
providing health and other welfare benefits to contractor
members and their employees throughout the United States. In
1999, ABC’s insurance carrier announced that they no longer
could stay in the business of providing association group
insurance because of the complexity and inconsistency of
state laws. ABC strongly supports extending ERISA preemption
currently available for larger, self-insured corporate plans
and Taft-Hartley union plans, to bona fide associations and
professional societies for small businesses in the fully
insured market through Association Health Plans. Summarized
from
ABC's Association Health Plan Issue
Brief.
ABC is leading the
fight to provide small business access to affordable, quality
health care by lobbying to pass bipartisan Association Health
Plan (AHP) legislation.
