Employer clients using an Affordable Care Act compliance solution vendor may have already received, or will be soon receiving, surveys or questionnaires requesting information about the employer’s workforce. Industry experts say the surveys often use technical jargon or request data that some employers are unsure of where to find, highlighting a real need for adviser help with the process.
While some ACA compliance solutions integrate with an employer’s data management system to collect the necessary data to complete IRS reporting forms required as part of the ACA’s so-called employer mandate, other vendors rely upon employers to provide the data manually.
