Health Care Reform: Employer’s Top 10 Questions Answered
Course Description:
Is the employer-based insurance system that we’ve had since the 1940s about to unravel?
The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA), signed into law on March 23, 2010, is perhaps the most far-reaching piece of social legislation passed in the last several decades.
These extensive changes have left employers scrambling to figure out exactly what healthcare reform means and how will it affect the way health benefits are provided.
In this comprehensive audio conference, legal expert Ashley Gillihan, will cover all of the confusing and most important changes employers need to be aware of now, including:
- Why AT&T, Verizon, John Deere, and Caterpillar are considering dumping health benefits and giving employees a “raise” to buy coverage on the state insurance exchanges to be created by the reform law.
- Health insurance reforms, including but not limited to:
- Coverage for adult children to age 26
- 100% covered preventive care
- Prohibition againstlifetime and annual limits on "essential benefits"
- ProhibitionagainstPre-existing condition exclusions
- Exchange like reporting
- Others
- What is a grandfathered plan and what does that mean for you?
- Which benefits are subject to the Health Insurance Reforms?
- The Pay or Play penalties
- New employer reporting obligations
- New tax rules that impact that cafeteria plans, health FSAs and Health Savings Accounts
- Small employers – how are you impacted?
