How can small businesses manage rising healthcare costs in 2026?

In 2026, small businesses are facing the highest healthcare cost increases in 15 years. Small group employer-sponsored plans are experiencing renewals as high as 30%, driven by external market pressures, including rising pharmaceutical costs and changes to the Affordable Care Act (ACA). Unlike open market small group plans, a PEO like ADP TotalSource stabilizes these costs by moving small businesses into a large group risk pool. By leveraging its massive scale and buying power, ADP TotalSource secures large-group rates, helping to mitigate severe price fluctuations and provide greater cost predictability than the open market typically allows.

Is ADP TotalSource a certified PEO?

Yes, ADP TotalSource has met all the rigorous background, financial and reporting requirements set by the IRS. This certification ensures financial protections and tax benefits to TotalSource clients that users of non-certified PEOs do not necessarily receive. ADP TotalSource helps ensure your federal employment taxes are paid.

Which platforms does ADP TotalSource integrate with?

TotalSource has pre-built, secure integrations and data connectors with over 300 business software applications and leading payroll, HR and financial systems. ADP can also create a custom API (or integration) if you need data integration with a system we don’t already integrate with.

How easy is it to implement ADP TotalSource?

We make it easy by working with you every step of the way. First, you’ll assign a team member from your end to partner directly with us. We’ll take care of all the heavy lifting, but we want to make sure you’re staying close throughout the process, overseeing setup and system tests. On average, this amounts to a time commitment of about one hour per day for the first few weeks.

From there, you’ll meet your dedicated ADP Human Resources Business Partner, who will take you through the different ways we can help you manage your workforce across benefits, compliance, training, hiring, retention, and more. You'll also learn about the experts and specialists across many disciplines working behind the scenes for you. You can expect to be up and running with TotalSource in a few weeks.
