Health Care Reformfor Employers: ACADESIGN AND PLANNING OPPORTUNITIES

 
When effective, the ACA “Employer Mandate” will require large employers to offer health coverage to full-time employees and their children up to age 26 or risk paying a penalty. Applicable employers must decide to either "play" by offering affordable health coverage that provides minimum value or "pay" by potentially owing an IRS penalty for failure to offer complying coverage. Under the regulations the Play or Pay choice is referred to led "shared responsibility" certain requirements.

The requirements are applicable only to “large employers" generally defined as employers having an average of 50 or more full-time or full-time equivalent employees on business days during the preceding year. "Full-time employees" include all employees who work at least 30 hours on average each week Monthly equivalent is 130 hours per month). The number of "full- time equivalent employees" is determined by aggregating the hours worked by all non-full-time employees, and dividing by 120 hours.
