SMART Plan, a Comprehensive Health Program
The Georgia Chamber SMART Plan launched in 2018 as a comprehensive health program offered to small businesses that are members of the Georgia Chamber or members of a participating local chamber as part of the Georgia Chamber Federation. Administered through Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield, the plan allows smaller employers to join together to share in the overall claims risk with predictable, fixed monthly payments.
Georgia Chamber SMART Plan: The Georgia Chamber SMART Plan is available to small business employers with at least two employees enrolled on their medical plan and no more than 50 eligible employees, domiciled in Georgia. Eligible employers must also be a member of the Georgia Chamber or a participating local chamber in good standing.
Anthem Chamber Plus Plan: Anthem is offering qualified businesses in Georgia a new health plan option with more savings and enhanced value. The Chamber Plus plan combines special features designed to help companies with 51 to 99 enrolled employees lower their healthcare costs while enhancing the value of coverage for their employees.

Healthy Business Alliance Program
The Healthy Business Alliance® Chamber of Commerce-sponsored insurance programs began in 1994. The programs were developed to give small and medium-sized Chamber member businesses access to discounted insurance products. The program works through local independent insurance agents to make available comprehensive health insurance, limited benefit health plans, long term care insurance and supplemental coverage like dental insurance, term life insurance, disability income coverage, and vision care insurance. Products are offered through a variety of the top insurance carriers, and most products have some type of negotiated premium discount designed to save you money. Now, you can give your employees quality benefit packages like large companies provide.
