1. The Employer’s Guide to “Play or Pay”

An Overview of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) and its Potential Impact on Employers and their Workforces.

As employers consider their health insurance solutions in the face of health care reform, benefits benchmarking data is vital to accurately evaluate costs and determine if a plan is competitive. The 2014 UBA Health Plan Survey Executive Summary provides the latest trends in health plan costs, design, and plan type, plus information on wellness programs and the impact of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA). Download publication.

3.  A Business Case for Benefits Communications.

As the cost of employer-sponsored health insurance continues to rapidly outpace wages and inflation, now more than ever employers are looking for ways to keep costs down. One way to do so (that requires very modest investment) is by improving benefits communication, a critical component of your employee engagement strategy. Download publication.

4.  Counting Employees Under PPACA.

As you likely know, the “employer mandate” section of the Affordable Care Act requires companies with 50 or more employees to either provide adequate and affordable coverage to their workers or pay tax penalties. But just how are those 50 to be counted? Download publication.
