ACA-Track Survey Results

Since the enactment of the Affordable Care Act in 2010, Applicable Large Employers (ALEs) have dealt with deadlines changing yearly, the “repeal and replace” movement in Washington, D.C., options for “good faith” offers, as well as IRS penalty letters and audits – just to name a few!
