Political Reality – PPACA Has Ardent Defenders
in Powerful Places
![Page 7: Healthcare Update Panelists Jeffrey Lundgren, U.S. Chamber of Commerce Jeffrey Lundgren, U.S. Chamber of Commerce Mike Kahley, SrVP at Lockton Companies.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081503/56649ca55503460f94966b26/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Law is here to stay – glaring warts and all
Administration frantically trying to put out political fires caused by implementation— www.healthcare.gov debacle
— Wave of cancellation notices
— Employer mandate blowback (volunteer firefighters/adjunct professors)
PPACA – Where Are We?
![Page 8: Healthcare Update Panelists Jeffrey Lundgren, U.S. Chamber of Commerce Jeffrey Lundgren, U.S. Chamber of Commerce Mike Kahley, SrVP at Lockton Companies.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081503/56649ca55503460f94966b26/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Republicans pushing hard to undercut implementation— Targeted repeal votes
— Seeking other ways to gum up implementation
Democrats unsure of their message and approach— Tout its benefits and argue GOP wants to go back to bad old days
— Tout its benefits and support targeted fixes
PPACA – Where Are We?

Administration’s Theme: do almost anything to mitigate political problems— Possible areas of action
— Addressing policy cancellations

Regulatory side:— Do not expect any new regulations impacting 2015
— Fall of this year: start seeing regulations governing 2016
Legislative side:— 40 hour work week definition
— Medical device tax?

How Many Employees are Likely to Enroll in Coverage?
Total # of full-time employees
Less # in Measurement Period
Less # of <26 years who opt out
Less # eligible for government programs
Less # other opt-outs
# covered by plan
Employees less than 26 years old may elect to get coverage under a parent’s plan
Employer mandate requires coverage offered to full-time employees (work 130 hours per month/30 hours per week)
Variable and Seasonal employees may be eliminated from offering until full time status is determined
Employees eligible for Government programs (i.e. Medicaid, Medicare, Tricare, Indian Nation) not likely to elect employer coverage
Other employees may opt out due to cost or availability of coverage through spouse; employer only required to offer coverage
Determine number of employees likely to elect employer coverage or to purchase coverage on exchange

Serving Three Employee Populations
I am excited about the insurance plan offered to me for
the first time.
I don’t qualify for the Employer Plan and need to buy
individual coverage.
I like the coverage I have and want to
keep it.

Do you need to apply the correct measurement and stability periods for each employee group?
Do you offer the right coverage for each group’s unique needs?
Are your contributions set appropriately to avoid penalties?
Can you pass Section 105(h) discrimination testing?
With varying needs, do you need unique communication and education solutions for each group?
Your Decisions
![Page 22: Healthcare Update Panelists Jeffrey Lundgren, U.S. Chamber of Commerce Jeffrey Lundgren, U.S. Chamber of Commerce Mike Kahley, SrVP at Lockton Companies.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081503/56649ca55503460f94966b26/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Somehow, you need to get elections to the right carriers correctly.
Since you don’t know who specifically will enroll, how do you determine the premium and financial impact?
How will Automatic Enrollment potentially change your strategy?

Defined Contribution and Private Exchanges Alone Do Not Stop/Slow Medical Trend— CDHP Migration can Reduce Costs
— Health Outcomes and Unit Costs Matter
Multi-Year Agreements Only Work when the Cost and Performance are Guaranteed
ACOs, Evolving Networks and Redirection Represent Significant Savings Potential— Exchanges Need to Support and Enable this Transformation
Employee Choice Helps Drive Satisfaction but Not Necessarily Lowest Cost
