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 Jewish Family Service of Los Angeles 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 Jewish Family Service of Los Angeles’ 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 contribu-
tions 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
ERISA and various other state and federal laws require that employers provide disclosure and annual notices to their plan partici-
pants. Jewish Family Service of Los Angeles will distribute all federally required annual notices upon hire and during each annual open en-
rollment period.
The following is a list of the annual notices:
Medicare Part D Notice of Creditable Coverage
HIPAA Notice of Privacy Practices
Women's Health and Cancer Rights Act (WHCRA)
