Did you know?

The Patient Protection & Affordable Care Act, commonly called healthcare reform, will
affect every individual and almost all businesses and their group health plans. Some
provisions require immediate action by employers and group plans while others are
effective in the next few years.

Practitioners who advise employers and group health plans must understand the new
mandates, the coverage changes in effect now and in the future, and the impact of this
legislation for employers and plans.

Why should you watch this CLE?

To advise your clients and your law partners about:

What penalties employers face for not providing health coverage or for providing ”unaffordable” coverage?

What coverage mandates are included in the new bill - and when must these changes be made?

How the legislations protects ”grandfathered” plans?

The program has been approved for one hour of general CLE credit.
