Sole proprietors can now join the SOCA Benefit Plan

Anthem, the Dayton Area Chamber of Commerce, and the Southern Ohio Chamber Alliance (SOCA) are pleased to announce that the SOCA Benefit Plan is making room for sole proprietors. They can enroll in the plan starting July 1, 2020.

The broker community has already received instructions from Anthem regarding new case submission. Quoting starts April 20, 2020.

An eligible sole proprietor must:

• Meet underwriting requirements.
• Work more than 30 hours per week (documentation required).
• Submit a cover page for Form 1040 with Schedule C or Form 1040 with Schedules F and SE.

Regulations limit sole proprietor membership to 10 percent of total SOCA Benefit Plan membership.

This is limited to sole proprietors. Presently this offer is not intended for non-profit organizations with one employee.
