Get SMART, a great health plan for small businesses

April 20, 2020
Are you looking for a health plan that can give you more rate stability and even more ways to save? You’ve got it. 
Welcome to the Georgia Chamber SMART Plan! A great healthcare solution that gives small businesses like yours an easier, more affordable way to offer healthcare to your employees, with a lot less worry. How? Easy!
 
The Georgia Chamber has teamed up with Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield (Anthem) to offer small business employers with at least two employees enrolled on their medical plan, but no more than 50 eligible employees, an opportunity to participate in a larger, self-funded pool. In addition, businesses must be a member of one of the Chamber Associations affiliated with the Georgia Chamber Federation.
 
This way, they can join together to share in the overall claims risk and have financial protection backed by Anthem. Pretty smart, right?

Quoting new groups
 
Enrolling groups
 
To enroll a group, all forms must be completed by the employer group and submitted as one package to their broker. Brokers then need to fill out the enrollment forms on Producer Toolbox based on the provided Employer forms.
 
Adobe Sign is an alternative software program allowing employer groups and brokers to sign forms electronically. The software includes the Employer Enrollment Application, EFT form, Product Dues and Acknowledgement form, Participation Agreement form and Employer Plan Document bundled together for quick and easy electronic completion. 
 
In addition, based on your employer groups needs you may need to complete the following documents and upload to Producer Toolbox.
 
  • HSA Questionnaire (when using PNC as your HSA banking option)
  • Wage and Tax forms (new groups to Anthem only)
  • Benefit Modification Form (renewing or off-cycle groups wanting to add new Dental, Vision, Life, and/or Disability coverage on an existing Anthem plan)
  • Anthem Quote Census (please open in Internet Explorer (IE)).
