This session provides an update on ACA guidance and reporting requirements for employers to ensure your companies are in compliance with the law so you can avoid the Shared Responsibility Payment. 

The employer shared responsibility under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) became effective January 2015, requiring that all businesses with over 50 full-time-equivalent employees provide health insurance for their full-time employees, or pay a per-month “Employer Shared Responsibility Payment” on their federal tax return. This requirement starts in 2015 for small businesses with 100 or more full-time-equivalent employees and in 2016 for those with 50-99 employees. Come hear how you can stay in compliance with this new ACA guideline.
