Adding group benefits is an investment into your company.  Business's small or large are all competing for the same workforce and health benefits matter.  Most potential new Hirees when asked will state that Health insurance coverage was a contributing factor in selecting a new employer.  Now more than ever Health insurance coverage is an important feature that potential new workers hope to gain while looking for employment.  Many small businesses are changing their strategy for recruitment of talent.  Sure, you can recruit with bonus money but if they left their former company to come to you someone can always give them more.  Offering Health benefits to a worker will set you apart and reduce turnover.  Giving the peace of mind to a potential new worker that they and their family will be ok if something goes wrong with their health is a much better bang for your business buck than a hiring bonus.
