Background

The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 (ACA) requires employers to offer affordable health insurance that provides minimum essential coverage to their full-time (and full-time equivalent) employees and their dependents or incur tax penalties.

The ACA also creates reporting requirements for employers and health care providers:

  • Forms 1094-B and 1095-B: Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 6055 requires health plans to report enrollment information to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and give a related statement to the responsible individual (typically the employee).
  • Forms 1094-C and 1095-C: IRC Section 6056 requires applicable large employers to file information returns with the IRS and give statements to employees about the health insurance coverage offered by the employer.

Note: Your agency is responsible for 1094-C and 1095-C reporting. This means that your state agency is responsible for reporting the Offer of Coverage Information (Parts I and II of Form 1095-C) for all employees.
