An Act relative to small group eligibility

This bill amends Massachusetts law to increase the maximum number of employees a small group health plan can have from 50 to 75. The change directly affects employers and insurance carriers who currently operate near the 50-employee limit, allowing them to offer group health coverage to larger workforces under the same regulatory framework. By raising this threshold, the legislation expands access to group insurance options for businesses that previously could only provide coverage to individuals. The update modifies an existing statute in Chapter 176Q without altering other eligibility requirements or benefits.
