SBA starts website, blog about health reform law

The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) rolled out new online initiatives today in an attempt to help business owners learn about the 2010 federal health-care reform law.

A website, www.sba.gov/healthcare, breaks the act’s main provisions into groups based on business size. Information will be grouped for self-employed individuals, companies with fewer than 25 employees, companies with fewer than 50 employees, and companies with 50 or more employees.

The SBA also launched a blog called “Health Care Business Pulse” to update business owners as the reform law, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, is implemented. That blog can be accessed at www.sba.gov/blog.

“The Affordable Care Act provides small-business owners with access and opportunity to provide affordable health-care options for their employees,” SBA Administrator Karen Mills said in a news release. “SBA’s new Affordable  Care Act Web page and blog will serve as a resource for small-business owners who want [to] learn more about how to take advantage of these benefits.”
