Question Is there such a thing as a Health Insurance Pool?

There was a meeting in my town a few months ago to discuss this exact issue (I would say that, probably 80% or 90% of the businesses owned in this area are privately owned small businesses). I can't remember exactly what came out of it (one of my client's attended) but I know that they were discussing the idea of bringing some sort of small business group insurance here. For some reason, I keep thinking that my friend said it wasn't really worth it because it was still expensive and the coverage wasn't that great for what you were paying. BUT, it still may be something that could be looked into. Maybe the Chamber of Commerce or some other business organization in other towns may have programs set up for small businesses (where you don't have to be in a specific industry).
