The Georgia Chamber SMART Plan launched in 2018 as a new, comprehensive health program offered to small businesses that are members of the Chamber. The plan allows smaller employers to join together to share in the overall claims risk. By being part of a larger, self funded pool, employers have financial protection backed by Anthem. To find out more about the Chamber SMART Plan contact your local insurance agent.
