ACA Administration
Tracking. Measuring. Reporting.
ACA compliance is a lot of work. Let us help.
Outsourcing ACA administration reduces an employer’s workload and can help ensure that an employer accurately manages their ACA program while protecting them from potential penalties.
We’ve designed our services to be as simple and efficient as possible so employers can focus on their core business. Employers send us their data and then we perform the appropriate calculations and determinations as well as handle all of the ACA reporting requirements.

Key Items to Consider
When considering ACA administration vendors, keep these key service features in mind:
MEASURING
To ensure accurate outcomes, make sure the vendor can support both monthly and look-back measurement methods.
DISTRIBUTION
Many ACA administrators don't offer form printing and mailing, which leaves it up to you to find a solution for distributing 1095 forms.
FILING
You'll want to make sure the vendor will file all required forms with the IRS. If they don't, you are responsible for filing the forms each year.
Make Sure You Ask The Right Questions
Choosing how to handle ACA compliance is an important decision that could potentially cost you big in the long run. Before you make a decision, make sure you're asking all the right questions.

EMPLOYER SHARED RESPONSIBILITY PAYMENTS
