Can I Be Charged More Because of My Group’s Health Status?

 

  • Premiums for all health plans sold to small employers in Maine are based on modified community rating. That means your premium cannot vary due to the health status or gender of people in your group. Premiums may vary due to age, occupation, smoking status, family size and location of your business.
