What are the minimum and maximum number of employees allowed by state law to participate in a group health insurance plan?
Most states require that an employer enroll a minimum number of employees (generally ten, though fewer in some states) for coverage in order to purchase and maintain a group health insurance plan. This minimum size requirement reduces the potential for adverse selection. There is no legal limit to the number of employees that may be covered under a group health insurance plan.
