By August 1st, a new Affordable Care Act for Small Business website will be launched. We definitely appreciate the administration’s support by awarding our team funds to work with EdMedia and get the website developed!
We are in the process of steadily populated the web pages with information that will be useful to business owners as they consider the ACA regulations and how they will affect business operations. Unlike the individual insurance coverage options, we found that the business information is very fragmented and requires a business owner to spend a lot of time hunting down the most current and correct information. We hope that by consolidating the information onto one site, we can serve as a “go to” for the small business owner, not only in Nebraska but for other states as well. We will be sharing this information with the Entrepreneurial Communities of Practice Team in eXtension.
At this point we mainly have the rules and regulations loaded and still need to flesh out the different decision options that could be available for that business at their employment level.
Here is the location of our preliminary pages at http://liferaydemo.unl.edu/web/etraining/healthcare
We do have a team of professional advisors that are and will be provide review of the website for accuracy of information.
We welcome your feedback as we continue to work toward the launch. Thanks.
