Researcher Information

Abstract

Small businesses face many posing costs when conforming their entire insurance infrastructure to the requirements of the Affordable Care Act. This survey of the literature includes key information on the implications of the ACA on small businesses, providing detailed cost and benefit potential over a range of circumstances. The purpose of this research was to open up the complicated text of the ACA itself and provide true to life situations where the implications can be visualized and better understood. Due to the complicated terminology of the ACA, many Americans are still improperly informed as to how the reform will take effect. The goal of compiling this information was to serve a factual and legible collection of information that applies directly to small businesses in America under the new reform. Change is on the horizon of the healthcare system in the USA, and to realize its potential an understanding of the diverse implications of the reform is necessary.
