Employers Select Insurance Services Joins OneDigital, a leading insurance, financial services, and HR Consulting firm.

From doctors to lawyers to group health insurance professionals, we join our professional association for many reasons. Some join for continuation education, some for advocacy, and others for networking. In the group health insurance business where lately the only constant is change, I belong to our local, state and national associations for all these reasons.

One example of critical advocacy our professional association, NAHU provides, is their continued fight to remove the HIT Tax provision from the ACA. A debilitating health insurance tax affecting employers and individuals alike, the tax was established to provide a significant revenue stream to pay for the costs of the ACA. When I tell clients about this tax and the size of it, they are staggered. This tax is scheduled to increase each year and at the ten-year mark, will cause premiums to increase $2150 annually for individuals and $5080 for families. In 2015, legislation passed to grant a one-year moratorium on the tax that was supported by nearly 400 bipartisan Congressional members, however the tax is due to take effect again in 2018.

Our association joined the coalition called “Stop the HIT” last week urging legislators to include a full repeal of the tax when submitting the market-stability legislation currently being developed. There is still strong bipartisan support for this tax repeal and we are hopeful “Stop the HIT” will be successful.
