Use the SHOP FTE Calculator to Determine Your SHOP Eligibility

The Small Business Health Options Program (SHOP) is for businesses and non-profit organizations who want to provide health and/or dental insurance to their employees. Generally, only businesses with 1-50 full-time equivalent (FTE) employees are eligible for SHOP insurance.

Businesses can use the SHOP FTE Calculator to see if their mix of full-time and part-time employees equals between 1-50 FTE employees. All you need to do is enter the number of full-time employees and the hours worked per week by part-time employees, and the calculator will tell you if your business qualifies. Click the button below to find out if your business qualifies!
