Okay,
I'm in a situation where on earth I need employer-based group insurance from a company headquartered surrounded by my home state of Indiana (don't ask why - just adopt it as fact).
If my wife applies for a job at a franchise, such as McDonalds Ford, or Merry Maids does the franchisee buy/negotiate the robustness insurance policy, or does the corporate headquarters do so? For me, it is critical that the franchisee do it, as the franchisor will likely be out of state.

Answers: It's the franchisee. IF they choose to contribute it. And they don't have to.
If the franchise location is locally owned the insurance could be arranged through an agent contained by Indiana with a owner domiciled in Indiana. However that agent might also enjoy access to companies that are licensed to operate in Indiana but enjoy their home offices (or headquarters) within States other than Indiana.
If the franchise location is company owned consequently the insurance would likely be through a national shipper that could insure locations all over the United States. That "national company" may or may not be headquartered contained by Indiana.
Sorry, no way to answer your grill with any certitude.
