New York, NY -- (ReleaseWire) -- 08/10/2016 -- In 2016, the "employer mandate", a new requirement under Obama Care or the Affordable Health Care Act mandates that all businesses with 50 or more full-time equivalent employees (FTE) provide health insurance to at least 95% of their full-time employees and dependents up to age 26. Any employers who do not adhere to this new requirement will pay a fee.

Employer Insurance Plans under Obamacare. Under the recent employer mandate, small- and medium-sized businesses throughout the nation must now adhere to the following guidelines:

- Must provide employees with reports on the Health Care Marketplace
- Must offer health care coverage and options to new employees within the first 90 days of their start date
- Employers must provide employees with a "Summary of Benefits and Coverage (SBC) disclosure rules
- Employees cannot contribute more than $2,550 per year to their FSAs
- New rules surrounding Workplace Wellness programs
- Report information on health coverage

Visit this site here to read more on how the Affordable Health Care Act affects small businesses.

As mentioned above briefly, businesses who have 50 or more full-time employees must provide health insurance coverage and options to a minimum of 95 percent of employees. This 95 percent likely includes full-time employees, who aren't considered "flex" employees, temporary employees, or employees who work less than half time.

However, one of the biggest concerns for small businesses is acquiring health plans that meet these requirements, yet are affordable.

Marc Sporn Senior Executive Criticizes Obamacare Measures of Affordability to Average Income Consumers

New York, NY -- (ReleaseWire) -- 07/15/2016 -- A Senior Executive Officer of Marc Sporn Health Enterprises was quoted yesterday saying to a local newspaper outlet that Obamacare was an absolute waste of funds and is biased in its division of income amongst U.S citizens. The Executive who chose to stay anonymous also opened fire on the Affordable Care Act (ACA) that was signed into law to restructure the health care industry by Obama in 2010. "The idea was to provide all Americans with an equal opportunity for a better health care option, but in doing so, Obamacare divided the average American between options that were too far out of his financial reach with little benefit."

Although Obamacare has been getting a lot of media coverage lately, the main focal points of argument were how to maximize cost assistance. Obamacare subsidies are claimed to save your money on health care premiums and out of pocket expenses. These subsidies, however, are only available through Marketplace enrollment. These include Premium Tax Credits, Medicaid Expansion and Cost Sharing Reduction Subsidies. The main points blasted by Marc Sporn Health were relating to Employer Mandate, which leaves no choice for most companies to provide and pay for expensive government-determined health insurance for their employees or face heavy federal fines. "While this might work well with large corporations, it might be a major hurdle for smaller businesses that are trying to get off the ground." He went on to argue. This also affects the regular U.S. citizen because of the increasing health-care costs. As reported by the Kaiser Family Foundation: the average price of a family policy has risen by $2,200 during the Obama administration. That is a staggering statistic compared to the promise that affordable health care coverage will be available for the average American. And although some statistics show that 1 in 6 Americans secured a Marketplace plan of $100 or less in 2015, Marc Sporn's Senior Executive Officer remains skeptical of these figures and claims that it is on its way to a steep decline. Not to mention the increase in taxes that will affect the lives of many hardworking U.S citizens.

New York, NY -- (ReleaseWire) -- 07/11/2016 -- In the last century, civil rights issues have changed considerably. Through the years, civil rights issues have evolved from slavery to the segregation between blacks and whites to equal pay and opportunities for women. However, today we are seeing a new issue surrounding civil rights: homosexual and trans-gender rights.

In June 2015, the Supreme Court legalized same-sex marriages in all 50 states, requiring states to recognize the union of a same-sex couple. As a result, same-sex marriages have expanded into couples' rights to health care.

However, in the last several years, trans-genders have found it difficult to access health care coverage to cover sex-specific conditions requiring treatments and procedures simply because they identify themselves as a different sex.

Civil Rights Strengthen

Today we are still seeing equality issues in the realm of health care. In May 2016, a final rule from Health and Human Services (HHS) now prohibits discrimination based on race, color, national origin, sex (and gender identity), age or disability.

As a result, the Affordable Health Care Act has taken great strides towards health care equality by updating and clarifying the language of the law. The new rule forbids health care providers that receive HHS funding from denying health care based on gender identity. This new rule also forbids providers from denying patients treatment for sex-specific ailments, such as ovarian or prostate cancer simply because an individual identifies as a different sex.

For example, if a biological male transforms into a female but still has male reproductive parts, and he/ she was diagnosed with prostrate cancer, then his/ her health care provider would deny him/ her health coverage to treat the cancer, simply because he identified himself as a female.

However, the new rule forbids health care providers under HHS from denying health care based on gender.

A 2010 national survey found that 19% of trans men and women were refused services because of their gender identity, 28% said they had been harassed in medical settings, and half said they had to teach their health care provider about caring for transgender people. Though the rule will not eliminate all discrimination, it will make it easier for those who feel they have been wronged to file complaints and take legal action." – TIME

The team at Marc Sporn Health is well aware of the down sides to ObamaCare, and are working together to try and push for changes and improvements in the new health care system.

New York, NY -- (ReleaseWire) -- 06/30/2016 -- Many individuals, families, and businesses have been beyond frustrated with health care spending and being denied health care coverage due to pre-existing conditions and illnesses. Considering there were over 12.7 million people who were enrolled in ObamaCare by the end of the enrollment period in January 2016, many would agree that the Affordable Health Care Act has been successful thus far.

Although individuals and families who have ObamaCare coverage are happy with their plans and think very highly of them, a recent poll referred to in an article by The Huffington Post shows that individuals are quickly becoming frustrated with high deductibles and premiums.

About ObamaCare and the Affordable Health Care Act. Up until the year 2014, before we really began to see the extent of the Affordable Health Care Act in action, many individuals, families, and senior citizens were unfairly denied coverage and charged outrageous premiums, leaving a huge percentage of the population without health care.

ObamaCare and the Affordable Health Care Act was established in an effort to provide individuals, families, businesses and senior citizens access to quality health care and at an affordable cost. Since ObamaCare and the Affordable Health Care Act have been in effect, the number of uninsured Americans has dropped to historic lows, to only approximately 9.1 percent from 28 percent just one year prior.

Read this article here to learn more about Americans and health care.

Is ObamaCare Working? Although many individuals are happy with their plans, poll results tell us that many are growing tired of their high premiums and deductibles. In fact, 51 percent of consumers are claiming that their plan is "only fair" or "poor", a complete 180 shift from poll results just one year ago when 51 percent rated their plan and coverage as "good" or "excellent".

Although media coverage clams that consumers dislike the "narrow networks" of physicians and hospitals under ObamaCare, the bigger problem appears to be with premiums and deductibles. Part of the purpose of the Affordable Health Care Act is to reduce and limit out-of-pocket spending, and before the Act was put into action, no such limits existed, resulting in the rise of high health care spending over the last 20 years.

However, even with the new Act in place, consumers still claim they owe thousands of dollars in medical bills before hitting the limits. In some instances, consumers have even claimed that an insurer paid less than what the consumer expected.

The team at Marc Sporn Health believes that ObamaCare and the Affordable Health Care Act is a great start to a fair health care system in the United States, however, it still requires some adjustments and improvements in order to make it a solid system that truly helps Americans find affordable health care. This is what Marc Sporn Health is trying to do.

Marc Sporn Health, a group of health care activists working for change, believes that creative ideas and the ability to collaborate will make changes to improve the Act.

New York, NY -- (ReleaseWire) -- 06/03/2016 -- It's no secret that the health care system in the United States was in desperate need of reform. A need for change was necessary. And while it took awhile for the Affordable Health Care Act to ramp up and be put into reform, it has been successful in reaching its goals to provide individuals with access to quality and affordable health care and even reduce health care spending, thus far.

Beginning with a Grassroots Campaign

The team at Marc Sporn Health has organized a grass roots campaign, which was established in an effort to collaboratively bring about more awareness to the areas of the Affordable Health Care Act that require additional attention and reform. While there are probably many organized groups that are 100% against the Affordable Health Care Act, Marc Sporn Health isn't one of them; they simply believe that more amendments are needed in order to be more realistic for individuals, families, and small businesses in our country.

For example, a quick look at the average marketplace deductible reveals that individuals and families are required to pay $7,500 out of pocket or more for health coverage in an emergency. When looking at the average American's annual salary, $7,500 is approximately one-fourth of the average salary, which is simply not realistic. By pushing for further change, the team at Marc Sporn Health believes that this can be amended to be as low as $500, making it a bit more affordable for individuals.

Marc Sporn Health was established by founder, Marc Sporn, and is operated by a community of people. The mission behind Marc Sporn Health is to create more awareness about affordable health care, and what we can do as a community to help improve it, benefiting individuals, families, and small businesses in our country.

Consider hosting events at your home to bring about awareness. Help us organize protests and sit-ins. Work with your friends and family to educate them on what we can do to help get this Act amended.
