Yes. PEOs purchase health insurance in the large group market on behalf of thousands of employees, giving smaller Iowa companies access to comparable benefits portfolios as the major Des Moines insurers.
There is no Iowa rate to quote you. A 20 to 75 employee Iowa SMB is priced on headcount, states, workers' compensation class codes and the benefits census. Only two PEOs on our panel publish a rate on their own website, Justworks (PEO Basic $79, PEO Plus $124 per employee per month) and Deel PEO (starting at $125); everyone else quotes per client. Iowa's relatively simple regulatory environment can keep the compliance line of a quote lower than coastal states, but you only see that by comparing quotes on the same census with the admin fee, medical and workers comp separated.
