Employers have plenty of questions about provisions of ObamaCare (yes, I want it to be called that instead of Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act [PPACA]). Many employers want to know what is required of them in the next several months, or next year. These are some of the more common questions that employers have regarding Obamacare:

• What about grandfather status versus non-grandfather status?
• How does the dependent age extension to 26 affect our plan?
• What about changes to Health Savings Account and Flexible Spending Account guidelines?
• What about W-2 reporting?
• What special notices are now required to be included in open enrollment materials?
