Shifting Roles - Employer Health plan important component in attracting and retaining employees Selecting plan for employees Collecting money and paying carrier Concern over funding and participation requirements No plan or Defined Contribution platform important component in attracting and retaining employees Choosing contribution and platform to offer Reimbursing premiums in coordination with payroll No minimum contribution or participation requirements

New law could shift employee health benefits to private market The Supreme Court's endorsement of the federal healthcare law this week could spur more employers across the nation to relinquish their long-standing role as chief healthcare buyer for their workers. This shift has already begun among some big employers shedding their role in providing retiree health benefits, and experts say the court's decision this week could eventually lead companies to pursue a similar approach with current workers. With the Affordable Care Act still on track to offer numerous new benefits, such as guaranteed coverage for all adults starting in 2014, some companies may want to stop providing health coverage and instead give workers money to buy their own.
