A head Labor Department official said Monday that the department cannot provide as much clarity or answer questions about the Affordable Care Act as people are seeking due to elements of the law.
Speaking at the International Foundation for Employee Benefit Plans Washington Legislative Update at the Capital Hilton, Phyllis Borzi, assistant secretary for employee benefits security, acknowledged that those in the audience — mostly multi-plan trustees — are struggling with how to implement the ACA and although the DOL is working with them “these are very, very difficult issues because the statute is so unforgiving in a number of areas.”
