The new reporting requirements that come with the Affordable Care Act are more than some employers would like to deal with alone and in-house. This upcoming filing year will be the first reporting year where it is mandatory to file the 1095 form series so being prepared and getting a solution in place should be a top consideration for employers. According to a survey conducted among 480 employers in 36 industries only 10% have in-house OR outsourced solution in place. Sixteen percent of survey participants reported that they have not yet even considered a solution, or do not know what solutions they should consider. For employers, the basics of Affordable Care Act compliance includes payroll data collection, subject-matter consulting, form distribution and electronic filing. This reporting applies to all employers with more than 50 full-time employees. Last year ACA reporting was voluntary and was used as a trial run but now, the pressure is real. More importantly are the substantial penalties assessed for non-compliance. For 2015 if coverage is not offered to at least 70% of employees of an Applicable Large Employer (ALE) the employer is subject to a 2,000 dollar penalty per employee. For the following tax year (year 2 that ACA is mandatory) all ALEs must offer affordable coverage to 95% of its workforce. Not many vendors have an Affordable Care Act solution in place and those who do are very expensive.
