Group Eligibility. The Group must continuously satisfy the requirements of this section, this Contract and the Group's application in order to become enrolled and remain enrolled under this Contract.
Group Eligibility. In order to be eligible for Oscar coverage, You must qualify as a Small Employer, defined by the Affordable Care Act (“ACA”) in conjunction with California law. A Small Employer is any person, firm, proprietary or nonprofit corporation, partnership, public agency, or association that is actively engaged in business or service, that, on at least 50 percent of its working days during the preceding calendar quarter or preceding calendar year, employed at least one, but no more than 100, employees, the majority of whom were employed within this state, that was not formed primarily for purposes of buying health care service plan contracts, and in which a bona fide employer-employee relationship exists. In determining whether to apply the calendar quarter or calendar year test, We will use the test that ensures eligibility if only one test would establish eligibility. Subsequent to the issuance of the Group Health Plan to You, and for the purpose of determining Your eligibility, Your Group size will be determined using the method for counting Full-Time Employees and Full-Time Equivalent Employees set forth in Section 4980H(c)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code. Under this counting method, first calculate the number of Full-Time Employees. Full-Time Employees are permanent employees actively engaged in the conduct of business on a full-time basis. They must have a normal work week averaging 30 hours per week over the course of a month, work at Your regular place of business, and have met their waiting period, if applicable. Once You determine the number of Full-Time Employees, You then calculate the number of FTE Employees. FTE Employees are a combination of employees, each of whom individually is not a Full- Time Employee (because they‘re not employed on average at least 30 hours per week) but who, in combination, are counted as the equivalent of a Full-Time Employee. To calculate FTE Employees, take the total hours worked by non-full time employees in a month and divide that amount by 120. That number (rounded down to the nearest whole number) equals the number of FTE Employees. Finally, add the number of FTE Employees to the total number of Full-Time Employees to determine Your Group size. Mid-year fluctuations in the number of employees do not affect the determination of Group size. Group size is only determined on issuance and at the time of renewal. To confirm you Group size, We will ask and may rely upon the information You provide, including appropriate tax ...
