It’s November 6, 2012. The election results are just hours away. After the dust settles, do you know what this will mean for the future of health care in this country or employee benefits in general?
If elected President, Governor Mitt Romney has promised to repeal Health Care Reform “to the extent humanly possible.” His statement acknowledges that the wheels have been set in motion and that even as President of the United States he cannot singlehandedly turn back the hands of time. What WILL he do? What CAN he do?
If President Barack Obama is re-elected to serve another four years, does that necessarily mean smooth sailing for the implementation of Health Care Reform?
A new Congress will be in place and there will likely be extensive litigation challenging aspects of the law and implementation - much like that surrounding the individual mandate. Will employers get off the sidelines and actually have to do something to respond to the changes?
On November 14th, we are hosting two webinars (at 10 AM CST and 1 PM CST) on the future of health care reform after the election. Join us to hear how we see the landscape of employee benefits changing and the important steps you can be taking today. [And if you haven't yet, get out and cast your vote!]
