Small Business Health Insurance
Coop - Update | 
We are excited to let you know that the Arlington Chamber of Commerce intends to participate in the Massachusetts Association of Chambers of Commerce Executives (MACCE) small business group purchasing cooperative, allowing us to offer access to reduced health insurance costs for our small business members.
Discussions are in progress with health insurance carriers to offer discounted health plans covering all geographic areas of the state. The Coop will begin enrollment by late spring/early summer 2012.
Participating businesses will be able to take advantage of the Coop discounts by joining the Coop and enrolling in health insurance through their existing broker or intermediary.
If your business renews its health insurance in the next couple of months before the Coop enrollment begins, you will be able to immediately switch to the Coop health insurance offering unless you have already joined another Coop.
For more information please visit: http://www.chamberhealthcoop.com
We will keep you informed as further updates are available.
Respectfully,
Board of Directors
Arlington Chamber of Commerce
