IMPORTANT INFORMATION
The Affordable Care Act and You
The Affordable Care Act (ACA) requires nearly every American to be enrolled in medical coverage or pay a penalty. This is referred
to as the individual mandate. You have several options to satisfy this requirement:
• Enroll in a medical plan offered by Alexander’s Mobility Services or another group plan
• Purchase coverage through a health insurance marketplace
• Enroll in coverage through a government sponsored program
• Have no coverage and incur a tax penalty
Because Alexander’s Mobility Services’ medical plans are considered affordable and meet minimum value under Health Care
Reform, you will not generally see lower premiums or out-of-pocket costs through the marketplace. In addition, employer
contributions to your medical benefits will be lost if you choose to purchase coverage through the marketplace, and your portion of
medical premiums will no longer be paid via payroll deductions on a pre-tax basis.
For more information on your coverage options, please visit www.healthcare.gov.
Annual Notices
Various state and federal laws require that employers provide disclosure and annual notices to their plan participants. Alexander’s
Mobility Services has posted all federally required annual notices on ADP and our intranet for you to download and read at your
convenience.

• Medicare Part D Notice of Creditable Coverage
