Businesses Prepare for the Affordable Care Act

Businesses Come Face-To-Face With Health Care Law by Carrie Teegardin.  The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.  December 29, 2012.

The impact of the health care law on individual firms largely depends on salary level of business employees.  Those employers with many minimum-wage level employees will probably have more difficulty than those with higher salaries.   Some employers have been surprised at how little the law will impact them, while others, such as nursing homes, are concerned due to the prevalence of low-wage jobs.  Issues such as counting employees to determine applicability of the law and determining what employer offered plans are required to cover are presented.
