Starting in January 2015, the Affordable Care Act (ACA) requires employers to significantly increase their information reporting responsibilities. For example, if your small business (fewer than 50 employees) provides self-insured health coverage to your employees, you must file an annual return reporting certain information for each employee you cover.

For larger employers (50 or more employees), the reporting requirements are even greater. Starting in calendar year 2015, large employers must file an annual return reporting whether and what health insurance you offered your employees. In addition, if large employers provide self-insured health coverage to employees, they also will have to file an annual return reporting certain information for each employee covered. All three of these rules were optional in 2014.
