The Employer Exchange Notice

The Affordable Care Act (ACA) requires employers to provide their employees with a written notice about exchanges to help explain some of the benefits and potential consequences associated with purchasing through an exchange. Employers must issue these notices as of October 1, 2013. We were just notified on Aug 28th, 2013. We thought an extension was in order.
                                                         
The Exchange Notice must:

• Be distributed to all employees.
  

• Identify the existence of the new exchanges
• Provide a description of services provided by an exchange
• Explain that the employee may be eligible for a premium tax credit if the employee purchases a qualified health plan through the exchange
• Inform the employee that if they purchase a qualified health plan through the exchange, they may lose the employer contribution (if applicable) to insurance provided by the employer

In order to provide your employees with the notification, please follow the link below to download the Employer Exchange Notification in PDF format. In order for employees to access the exchange they are required to fill out this form.
