Wisconsin Manufacturers & Commerce is planning to launch a statewide Association Health Plan (AHP) over the next several months under new rules approved by the federal Department of Labor.
In a release, WMC says the goal of such a plan is to broaden the risk pool and offer small- and medium-sized businesses health care for their employees at a more affordable cost because AHPs are exempt from certain mandated coverages in the Affordable Care Act.
WMC already offers members other lines of insurance, such as group life, disability, and dental/vision.
