Questions we hear

Want to cover
your crew?

About 8 in 100 Purcell workers do most of their work from home, Census data shows. Local owners with a few workers ask us these.

“Is my business too small for a group plan?”

Maybe not. HealthCare.gov says SHOP is for employers with 1 to 50 full-time equivalent workers. At least one can't be an owner, partner, or family member.

“Do I have to offer insurance?”

No. HealthCare.gov says employers with 1 to 50 full-time equivalent workers don't have to offer coverage, and there's no penalty if they don't.

“Is there a tax credit for small employers?”

Under current law, there may be. HealthCare.gov says you may qualify with fewer than 25 full-time equivalent workers who earn an average of about $65,000 or less. You also have to pay at least half of their premiums and offer them SHOP coverage.

How we help

Small business help
in Purcell.

We start by counting your team the way SHOP does. Owners, partners, and family members don't count toward the 1 to 50 rule.

Then we talk through your choices. With SHOP, you choose how much you pay toward premiums and whether to cover workers' families.

If you'd rather help workers buy their own plans, we explain other choices too.

If you also need a personal plan, Purcell plans differ by doctor list, so we look up yours.

Purcell health insurance questions.

When is open enrollment for 2027 personal plans in Oklahoma?

Purcell residents buying their own plan use HealthCare.gov. As of November 4, 2026, HealthCare.gov lists 2027 open enrollment as November 1, 2026, through January 15, 2027. A court case about these dates, City of Columbus v. Kennedy, is still in the courts. Check HealthCare.gov for the latest dates. Sign up by December 15 for a January 1 start, or by January 15 for February 1. SHOP has no yearly window. To enroll in SHOP, you work with the insurance company or a SHOP-registered agent or broker.

Did Oklahoma expand Medicaid?

Yes. As of November 4, 2026, KFF lists Oklahoma as adopting the ACA Medicaid expansion, starting July 1, 2021. Oklahoma's Medicaid program is called SoonerCare.

Can I join the SHOP plan I offer my workers?

Yes. HealthCare.gov says you can, as long as at least one worker who isn't an owner, partner, or family member also enrolls.

What county is Purcell in?

Purcell is the county seat of McClain County, on the Canadian River.

Can I start SHOP coverage any time?

Yes. HealthCare.gov says eligible small employers don't have to wait for open enrollment to start SHOP coverage.

Can new hires wait before coverage starts?

Yes. You can set a waiting period for new workers, but HealthCare.gov says it can't be longer than 90 days.

What helps us get started?

Your number of workers, their hours, about what you pay them, and what you'd like to put toward premiums.

Can you give tax advice about the credit?

No. We explain what HealthCare.gov says. For your taxes, talk with a tax professional.
