Law aims to cut health costs for small business groups
South Carolina legislators advance a bill allowing at least ten small businesses to form nonprofit cooperatives to negotiate lower health insurance premiums. Supporters say potential savings of 13 to 25 percent exist, while critics argue the plan is only a partial fix and too costly for tiny firms to operate. Gov. Mark Sanford backs the bill as a priority.
