Health Care Reform & Associate Talking Points


Team, As we continue to journey together into the HCR arena it is more important than ever as professionals in this business to stay abreast of all of the changes. We are so fortunate to have a company that stays ahead of the curve and delivers important information to us. Below is a recap of the most recent changes along with talking points to help you deliver the best service to your new and potential clients. These are posted on Associates Services website but I wanted to post them here to remind you of their importance. I am very proud to let you know that ALL of your Raleigh Region Coordinators have completed the course through The American College and are HCR certified. Please reach out to them for assistance. They are here to help. Cathy :)

Associate Talking Points

Make the most of recent health care reform delays


On Feb. 10 the Obama administration announced two health care reform delays that most business owners in our core market will find helpful.

Understand what changed


There are two main things that were delayed concerning the employer mandate: 1. Employers with 50 to 99 full-time equivalent employees now have until 2016 to comply with the employer mandate to provide insurance to their full-time employees and their dependents or face a fine. 2. Employers with 100 or more full-time equivalent employees may find it easier to comply with the employer mandate based on changes aimed at giving employers more time to adjust to their responsibilities. Heres whats different: o In 2015, employers will only be required to offer coverage to at least 70 percent of their full-time equivalent employees and their dependents. If an employer didnt offer health care coverage to dependents of their full -time equivalent employees in 2013 or 2014, transition relief is available. And, employers wont be penalized in 2015 for not offering health care coverage to dependents of full-time equivalent employees as long as theyre taking steps in 2014 and 2015 to provide coverage in 2016.

o In 2016, the original requirement to offer coverage to at least 95 percent of full-time equivalent employees and
their dependents goes into effect.

Realize the opportunity


The two most recent health care reform delays give businesses extra time to adjust and respond to required changes. Now is the time to set appointments with existing and prospective employers to let them know how you and Aflac can help them make informed benefits decisions now and in the future. Use these talking points to help employers understand whats changed, what still applies and how offering Aflac is beneficial to their employees no matter what happens with health care reform or major medical insurance requirements.

Address specific questions about the delays


Q. I have fewer than 50 full-time equivalent employees. Do delays announced Feb. 10 apply to my company?

Share employee headcount clarification


Knowing the correct full-time equivalent employee count can be tricky for some employers, especially if some employees work on a part-time, volunteer or seasonal basis. You can now help business owners determine whether or not to include these in their full-time equivalent employee headcount: Yes Teachers and other school employees, even those not working during summer months. No Volunteers, students under a federal or state work-study program, and seasonal workers employed for 120 days or less.

Health Care Continued


Dont let delays add to the I-dont-need-to-think-about-itnow syndrome
Objection: Ill worry about making decisions later; especially now that I have more time. Talking points Its natural for employers to be cautious in making decisions with all of the uncertainty and change around health care reform, but dont let the most recent delays add to this objection. No matter what happens with health care reform always remind employers that: -of-pocket medical expenses arent going away. -pays and deductibles will always be there.

benefits decisions. The delays are meant to help employers prepare for requirements. Now is the time for them to start keeping detailed records of employee count, hours worked, health care coverage offered and compliance with notification requirements.

Aflac cannot anticipate all the facts that a particular employer or individual will have to consider in their benefits decision-making process. We strongly encourage readers to discuss their HCR situations with their advisors to determine the actions they need to take or to visit healthcare.gov (which may also be contacted at 800-318-2596) for additional information.
