Health Coalitions Program

Benefits of Participation

The Farmers Branch Chamber of Commerce, in conjunction with Texas Coalitions Inc., has created a health coalitions program for small businesses. This program was made possible by the passage of HB 897 during the 78th regular session of the Texas Legislature. It allows smaller employers with less than 50 employees to join together to form coalition groups and obtain rates from any small group insurance carrier offering coverage in Texas. The Farmers Branch Chamber of Commerce offers the coalition option to its members, and small businesses that decide to participate in a coalition will benefit by being a Chamber member. The combined premiums for the employers in the first coalition were 39 percent lower than if each had purchased their own group health insurance plan.
