In the context of Illinois health insurance, what is the implication for a company that has more than 25 employees?

In Illinois, a company with more than 25 employees is not defined as a small employer. The classification of small employer typically includes businesses with 1 to 25 employees. Therefore, a company with more than 25 employees would fall into the category of a large employer. This distinction is important because it often affects the type of health insurance plans available as well as the regulatory obligations that apply to those employers. Large employers usually have different responsibilities under the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and may also have access to different types of health insurance options compared to small employers.

Understanding these classifications aids in navigating the requirements for providing health insurance and complying with relevant laws and regulations.
