Unlocking the Advantages of a CCSB Partnership

By Covered California for Small Business  

 In the evolving landscape of health insurance, agents are constantly seeking ways to enhance their offerings and streamline their operations. Partnering with Covered California for Small Business (CCSB) emerges as a compelling strategy. CCSB stands out by providing a robust selection of high-quality health plans from reputable providers, tailored to meet the diverse needs of small businesses. This partnership is not just about expanding your portfolio; it's about elevating the service you provide to small businesses, fostering growth for them and for your agency. 

Why CCSB Stands Out for Small Business 

Covered California for Small Business is a dedicated marketplace that delivers quality, affordable group health and dental insurance, catering specifically to employers with 1 to 100 full-time equivalent employees and to meet the need of small businesses. A major advantage for small businesses is the chance to qualify for federal tax credits. This can substantially decrease the expense of health benefits, making it a more affordable option for many. 

The Benefits of Partnering with CCSB 

Choice and Flexibility: 

• Employees benefit from the ability to choose from a range of health plans provided by trusted carriers, including Blue Shield, Kaiser, and Sharp, finding the plan that best suits their needs, while employers can keep their budget in check. 

• The selection includes PPO and HMO plans across four metallic tiers (Platinum, Gold, Silver, Bronze), and optional dental coverage through Delta Dental (HMO and PPO options), enhancing the overall benefits package. 

• Getting a quote is straightforward—by contacting CCSB, agents can easily match their clients with plans that fit their needs and budget. 

Simplified Billing Process: 

• CCSB simplifies the billing process by consolidating all health insurance plans into a single bill, even when offering plans from multiple carriers, making administration easier for your clients. 

Access to Exclusive Tax Credits: 

• Small businesses may be eligible for federal tax credits, a significant benefit that can lower premiums and make health benefits more affordable. 

Effortless Enrollment and Management: 

• The MyCCSB Portal streamlines plan management, allowing brokers and employers to effortlessly manage plans, update employee information, pay invoices, and track eligibility status, all from one centralized location.
