AFFORDABLE CARE ACT (ACA) COMPLIANCE

Affordable Care Act (ACA)

ACA stands for the Affordable Care Act, which is a comprehensive healthcare reform law enacted in the United States in 2010. The ACA, also known as Obamacare, was implemented to increase access to affordable healthcare coverage, improve the quality of healthcare, and reduce healthcare costs. 


ACA creates huge compliance problems for employers over 50 employees. The requirement of applicable large employers (ALE) is daunting and carries penalties up to $5,000 per employee per year. Critical steps include filing annually the form 1094 / 1095 with appropriate IRS tax submission on a strict timeline.

   

The ACA has had a significant impact on the healthcare landscape in the United States, expanding access to coverage for millions of Americans. However, it has also been a subject of political debate and has faced various changes and legal challenges since its implementation.


Why is it important to consult with tax professional such as ESG regarding ACA laws is important for several reasons:


  • Expertise and Knowledge: Tax professionals specializing in ACA regulations have in-depth knowledge and expertise in this complex area of tax law
  • Compliance Assistance: ACA laws involve various compliance obligations, including employer reporting, tax filing, and tracking employee eligibility for health coverage
  • Interpretation of Regulations: ACA regulations can be complex and subject to interpretation. ESG can help employers understand the requirements, exemptions, thresholds, and limitations relevant to their specific business circumstances
  • Customized Advice: Each employer's situation is unique, with different employee demographics, benefit offerings, and tax implications
  • Mitigating Risks: Consulting can help employers identify and mitigate potential risks associated with ACA compliance. By proactively addressing compliance issues and implementing sound practices, employers can minimize the risk of penalties, audits, and legal disputes. 
  • Maximizing Tax Benefits: Assist employers in identifying and maximizing available tax benefits and incentives related to ACA compliance
  • Peace of Mind: ACA compliance can be complex and time-consuming for employers. Engaging a tax professional provides peace of mind, knowing that an expert is overseeing compliance matters. It allows employers to focus on their core business operations while ensuring adherence to ACA laws.


Given the evolving nature of ACA regulations and the potential consequences of non-compliance, consulting a tax professional with expertise in ACA laws can help employers navigate the complexities, reduce risks, and ensure compliance with the applicable provisions.
