COSE took an early leadership role starting in the 1980s, to deal with health care issues, by providing group coverage options for small businesses, and was hailed by the US President as an example of the kind of leadership needed. Today COSE provides its 15,000 small business members with a wide variety of employee benefits programs and group buying discounts for everything from office supplies to natural gas.
