Why A is correct
Covered California for Small Business (CCSB) is the small-business exchange serving employers with 50 or fewer employees, allowing them to compare and purchase qualified health plans for their workers. Small employers may receive federal tax credits only by purchasing through CCSB. It is the small-group counterpart to the individual exchange operated by Covered California, and its 50-employee size limit is a specific exam number in the California exchange objectives.
Why the other options are wrong
- B) Medicare Advantage plans are sold through Medicare enrollment, not through CCSB, which serves employer groups.
- C) CCSB is a health insurance exchange for small employers; group disability is a separate product sold directly by insurers.
- D) Workers' compensation is administered under California workers' compensation law, not through CCSB.
Memory hook
CCSB = the small-business wing of Covered California: up to 50 employees, shop, compare, and earn tax credits.
