Show Notes

Connecticut lawmakers consider a bill to allow small businesses to form groups for cheaper health insurance. House Bill 5378 proposes Multiple Employer Welfare Arrangements (MEWAs), enabling companies to pool employees for better deals. The bill also calls for a study on the Connecticut Option, a state-backed plan. Supporters argue its a solution to high premiums and limited options for small firms, while critics warn of potential risks and lack of Affordable Care Act protections.
