Insure Montana: A Health Insurance Program for Small Businesses

Providing quality affordable health care for Montanans is the right thing to do. Small businesses are the engine of Montana's economy, and helping these small businesses provide insurance to their employees is a huge step in the right direction.

Governor Schweitzer called for and signed into law a program creating a purchasing pool allowing small businesses to band together to negotiate and purchase affordable health insurance for their employees. This new program, Insure Montana, provides premium assistance to employees and employers who join the program’s health insurance pool. Insure Montana also provides tax credits to businesses that are currently providing health insurance to their employees, but may be in danger of dropping coverage due to the high cost of insurance. Insure Montana is funded by and subject to tobacco tax revenues.

For more information about the purchasing pool or tax credit, please contact Insure Montana. You can find eligibility information, applications, and more at www.insuremontana.org, or you can call by phone at (406) 444-2040.
