Plan Options

SOCA Benefit Plan Option

Small Employer Health Coverage

In partnership with the Southern Ohio Chamber Alliance (SOCA) and Anthem, your chamber offers this medical benefit program to businesses with 50 or fewer employees. This health program, called a multiple employer welfare arrangement, or MEWA, enables smaller employers to join together to share in the overall claims risk. By being part of a larger, self-funded pool, employers have financial protection backed by Anthem’s stop loss coverage.The SOCA Benefit Plan is designed specifically for Chamber of Commerce members. The SOCA Benefit Plan presents an innovative alternative to the Affordable Care Act (ACA). This coverage offers:

• Competitive rates
• Fixed, predictable monthly payments
• A variety of plan designs, including PPO and HSA options
• Anthem’s broad Blue Access PPO Network and National Pharmacy Network
• Coverage for claims run-out/terminal liability coverage
• A self-funded plan.
• Allow changes in benefits and contribution rates at renewal, without being “locked in” by the grandfathered status.

Sole Proprietor Coverage

Anthem, the Dayton Area Chamber of Commerce, and the Southern Ohio Chamber Alliance (SOCA) are pleased to offer the SOCA Benefit Plan for sole proprietors. This is limited to sole proprietors. Presently this offer is not intended for non-profit organizations with one employee. 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.
