By now you probably have heard or read hundreds of news stories and articles about the Affordable Care Act (ACA). Most of the information pertains to medical insurance benefits, but a few articles address how two other highly valued employee benefits fit within the ACA: dental and vision insurance.
Medical insurance within the ACA is confusing. The numerous revisions and updates, and complexity of the law, make it difficult for employers to stay current with the decisions for which they are responsible. They also struggle with knowing how to communicate ACA information and deadlines to employees.
According to the February 2014 Kaiser Health Policy News Index, many employees are worried about the ACA's impact on their health care benefits. But 64 percent of employees report receiving only minimal information from their employer about the ACA and their health care plans within the last few months.
