The SCMA Association Health Plan offers significant advantages for small and large businesses alike. It can be a great alternative to small business plans that are subject to provisions of the Affordable Care Act. Employers who join the SCMA Association Health Plan will gain many of the regulatory advantages enjoyed by larger employers by joining together with other member companies.

Here are some of the top reasons to join the SCMA’s Health Plan:

Local Representation/Focus

The SCMA AHP is operated for and by South Carolina manufacturers. By joining our AHP, you can be involved in the decision-making process at your individual group level, as well as the Association level, and control your benefits decisions.

Single Source Solutions

Our benefits information is entered into one system and displayed on one bill. You'll have a one-stop-shop for ERISA, HIPAA and COBRA services, benefits enrollment and eligibility, as well as all your compliance needs. No more hiring multiple firms with separate systems to manage your ACA obligations!

Plan Design Flexibility

You can maintain control of your plan design and customize your medical plan by selecting a plan that meets your organizational needs. You can enhance your offering by choosing from numerous dental, vision, short- and long-term disability, and life plan options.

Cutting Edge Technology

Our AHP provides access to the best benefits administration technology and compliance technology available in the marketplace. You'll improve the efficiency of your benefits team by easing their administrative burden. All information is stored and transferred in a secure environment, which means your data is safe.

Financial Soundness and Transparency

Our AHP is fully underwritten, which means you get the best of both worlds: premiums based on your employees’ experience, plus the protections of pooling together with other manufacturers to provide long-term rating stability and more predictable renewals. This fully insured environment means no more worrying about the cash flow issues and potential risk that can come with a self-insured plan. Employers may have access to plan specific data based on individual enrollment within your organization.

The Largest PPO Network

You'll get access to some of the deepest discounts in the state of South Carolina and the U.S. Your employees and their families will not have to worry about accessing high-quality healthcare when it matters most. You no longer have to wonder whether you are paying a fair price for healthcare services within the Blue Cross Blue Shield network.

Integrated Compliance Assistance

We can facilitate ACA reporting requirements such as 1095, 1096, 6065 and 6066. You'll receive customizable reminders for compliance requirements via your compliance dashboard.

Attentive Customer Service

Your account manager will learn about your group and work to build a personal relationship with you. Your staff can call on one reliable person with intimate knowledge of your eligibility, billing, accounting, benefits and wellness.

Premium Savings

The SCMA AHP helps employers access better benefits and premium savings by leveraging the entire enrollment within the AHP.

SCMA Member Benefits

When you join SCMA, you gain access to unparalleled advocacy, programs, training and strategic connections.
