Am 28. Aug, 2010 schwätzte Bryan O'Neal so:

Are there any that provide a true group coverage where the risk is spread
against all the members of the group? I'd prefer to be on a group plan
rather than with an individual plan.

I think one place I looked at had a true group plan. It was a business
services company that would handle accounting, retirement plans, payroll,
etc. for a small business or consultant. The company requires pulling in a
decent amount of consulting in order to participate, so was beyond what
worked for me at the time.
