New Orleans Attorney Speaks with SHRM about Preparing Employers for ACA Penalties

In the face of a forthcoming wave of expected penalties flowing from the Affordable Care Act, SHRM turned to Tabatha George of Fisher Philips to help provide employers with information to prepare. According to George, employers that received an assessment notice for 2015 should look at their 2016 and 2017 reporting to see if they can expect additional notices. She recommended that employers check their address on Form 1094-C because this is where the penalty letters will be sent. "Make sure the right person is receiving it," she said.
