Unions and businesses said Wednesday they would not benefit from the Obama administration’s plans to exempt self-insured, self-administered plans from the Affordable Care Act’s reinsurance fee in 2015 and 2016.
The fee — which is $63 per person in 2014 and less in 2015 and 2016 — has come under fire from unions as a costly burden.
HHS told The Wall Street Journal it plans to seek public comment on the new regulations.
