How much of the employees’ monthly group premium does the employer pay?
Blue Cross Blue Shield of Wyoming encourages employers to pay as much of the employee premium as possible, but the minimum that the employer pays is 50%. Increasing the percentage the employer pays improves employee participation in the health plan and helps prevent the employer from falling below the required percentage of participating employees. The employer can choose to pay all or a portion of the employee’s spouse and dependent premium as well.
