Body
BACKGROUND
The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act 2010 HR3590, or Affordable Care Act (ACA) for short, requires employers with 50 or more full-time employees, including full-time equivalent employees, to issue annual coverage statements to members covered by the employer’s health plan (IRS Form 1095). The ACA also requires employers to file annual information to the Internal Revenue Service including what health plans were offered to employees and how much of the cost was shared by the employer.
The City of Dallas utilizes a third-party vendor to manage data collection, Internal Revenue Service (IRS) filing, and distribution of individual ACA reports to all active and terminated employees and retirees.
