Impact of Healthcare Law on New Jersey Small Businesses Focal Point of Webinar
Interactive call open to all small businesses; chance for entrepreneurs to learn about new small business and individual marketplaces, and how to enroll in one of the health insurance marketplaces
Jersey City, N.J.—The Small Business Administration (SBA), in conjunction with small business organization Small Business Majority, will host a webinar on Thursday, September 24, 2015, on the healthcare law's impact on New Jersey small businesses and how entrepreneurs can enroll in the state's health insurance marketplaces.
"We believe it's important for small business owners to learn more about the healthcare law and how it affects them," said Richard G. Zilg. "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 Majority's Outreach Manager, Aixa Acevedo, who will discuss the topics most relevant to small businesses, including small business tax credits, wellness grants and cost containment provisions. Acevedo will also explain how the marketplace functions for self-employed business owners.
A question and answer period will follow the discussion.
"Educating small business owners about how to access these new healthcare options, either the small business portal or the individual marketplace, gives them new options to obtain health insurance for themselves, their families and their employees," said Acevedo. "With the small business health insurance marketplace open year round, entrepreneurs will be able to use what they learn right now to secure the coverage they need." The webinar will take place on Thursday, September 24, 2015, from 12:00pm EDT.
