Healthcare Reform Bill: The True Effect On Small Business

On September 23rd 2010 the health care bill, also known as the Affordable Care Act, went into effect. With most new laws being put into place, the change happens over time. Six months ago President Obama signed the bill, but still only some of the new Act will only go into effect Thursday. Most of the Act will not be implemented until 2014. Starting Thursday, companies with less than twenty-five employees with salaries less than $50,000 could receive up to 35% tax credits. This will help small business pay to cover healthcare for the middle class workers. This small change alone will allow companies to afford paying for their workers and their families healthcare, when before it was to expensive.
