Employers are once again gearing up for the ACA reporting requirements due in early 2021. All Applicable Large Employers (ALEs) must complete Forms 1094C/1095C for 2020; small employers with self-funded plans must complete Forms 1094B/1095B.
We receive questions from employers almost daily on how to comply with these complex reporting requirements in various common (and unusual) situations and scenarios. To help with those questions, we have created 25 different ACA reporting tips for employers to use as guides when completing their Forms 1094C/1095C. These tips address some of the most common ACA reporting issues employers face, including helpful hints, tips and samples of completed Forms 1094C/1095C.
Below is an archive of the ACA reporting tips including links to each article.

Public health insurance exchanges have a head start over private exchanges, but in the coming years, employer and employee awareness will increase, and soon the private options should receive the recognition and utilization they deserve.
