Cincinnati, Ohio̢??Asian Community Alliance, in conjunction with small business organization Small Business Majority, will host a webinar on Monday, December 22, 2014 on the healthcare law̢???s impact on Ohio small businesses and how entrepreneurs can benefit from the state̢???s health insurance marketplace.
̢???We believe it̢???s important for small business owners to learn more about the healthcare law and how it affects them,̢???? said Jessica Truong, Health Navigator for the Asian Community Alliance. ̢???These interactive dialogues are a great way for small businesses to get the information they need to take advantage of and comply with key provisions of the healthcare law, and for us to get feedback on their thoughts and concerns.̢????
The free webinar, which is open to all small business owners, will feature Small Business Majority̢???s Midwest Outreach Manager, Michaela Hahn Burriss, who will discuss the topics most relevant to small businesses. These include how the marketplace functions for self-employed business owners, small business tax credits, wellness grants and cost containment provisions. Burriss will also provide detailed information on Ohio̢???s health insurance marketplace where small business owners can pool their buying power to help drive down insurance costs. Burriss will explain how the marketplace functions and how small business owners can join now that open enrollment has started.
A question and answer period will follow the discussion. Local certified insurance agents, healthcare providers and other healthcare experts will be available for assistance.
̢???Access to these new options, either the small business portal or the individual marketplace, will provide new options for many entrepreneurs to obtain health insurance for their families and their employees.̢???? said Burriss. ̢???Webinars like these help small business owners get the information they need to make the right decision for their company.̢????
