This Guide for Employers that sponsor employee health benefit plans identifies and explains these consequences, and contrasts PPACA’s effects on self-insured plans with its effects on insured ERISA health benefit plans. The Guide is intended to assist employers in evaluating the comparative advantages and disadvantages of each type of employee health benefit plan in light of the changes effectuated by PPACA.
