Employee Benefits Attorneys Continue to Advise Clients on Obamacare, Say More Guidance is Needed

Bob Christenson, a partner in the Atlanta office and chair of the firm's Employee Benefits Practice Group, discussed the importance of keeping employers focused on complying with the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) that is in place today in an article on Legal News Line on September 17. The article, "Employee Benefits Attorneys Continue to Advise Clients on Obamacare, Say More Guidance is Needed," stated that many employers waited for the U.S. Supreme Court to issue a ruling over the ACA before they started making major decisions. Some are still waiting for the outcome of the November General Election. Bob said: "I think no matter what happens in the election, a lot of these changes are here to stay. To be realistic here, employers need to bite the bullet and treat this law like it's going to be here after the election."
