Employer Health Insurance and Penalty (HIP) Pay or Play Analysis
Understand your options and the financial impact of health reform on your business.
Our services and data analysis reports can help you better understand your options and create a benefit strategy that is right for your company, and complies with health reform regulations.
How does Healthcare Reform affect your business?
If you have *the equivalent of 50 or more full time employees, you may face penalties under health reform regardless of whether or not you offer health insurance to your employees — especially if you have a high percentage of workers earning less than $45,960.
*40 fulltime employees + 20 part time employees could equal 50 full time employees.
Since 2014 the definition of full time employee is 30 hours per week. This could be a game changer for your company in regards to pay or play penalties.
