Health Care Reform: What’s Coming in 2013?

Contact: Spencer Fane Britt & Browne LLP (Missouri, USA)


PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

Although the “main event” of health care reform does not take effect until 2014, sponsors and administrators of employer group health plans will not want to ignore a number of requirements taking effect in 2013.

These include the following:

 

  • The new Summaries of Benefits and Coverage
  • Issuance of the first W-2s that must report the value of employer-provided health coverage
  • A $2,500 annual cap on salary reduction contributions to health flexible spending accounts
  • An additional 0.9% Medicare tax on all wages in excess of $200,000
  • Employers’ obligation to notify their employees of the new health care exchanges
  • Payment of the first annual “comparative effectiveness fee” by health plans and insurers
  • Additional first-dollar preventive care services (including the controversial contraceptive coverage)

Non-compliance with any of these health care reform requirements could result in stiff daily penalties. This webinar will provide practical guidance on how to comply with these requirements, thereby heading off those penalties. You won’t want to miss it!
