According to Families USA millions of small businesses have failed to claim their tax credit under the new health car law.  It looks as if more than 3 million businesses were eligible for the new health care credit in 2011 but only 360,000 businesses received the credit.  If you work for a small business or own one make sure you are getting your tax credit.  For the purpose of this tax credit a small business is a business employing less that 25 employees with an average annual salary less than $50,000 and most importantly they must provide insurance to their employees.

If you would like to find out more about the tax credit and if you might be eligible check with your accountant.  If you would like to talk to us about it you can reach us at (714)680-5900 or check out our website at www.ansainsuranceservices.com .

EyeMed goes Mobile

EyeMed Vision Care Website Goes Mobile.  EyeMed announced that they have launched a mobile feature for their subscribers.  Key features of this mobile version will allow subscribers to view benefits (exam co-pays, eyewear allowances, eligibility, the last date of service and the next date available for using exam & glasses or contact lense benefits). It also has a "locate provider" function, as well as, the ability to view EyeMed Vision Care indentification card.  This will make the EyeMed experience even better. 

At Ansa Inurance Services we feel that vision and dental plans are supremely important in an individuals life.  They often have a bigger impact/importance to many people than their health benefits.  More and more reaserch has shown that taking care of one's eyes and teeth improve ones overall health.  If you would like more information on these and other health insurance benefits check out our website at www.ansainsuranceservices.com or call us at (714)680-5900.  You can reach Angela at angela@ansainsuranceservices.com if you have a specific question.

Plan Now for Changes in the Health Care Act

It is important to beginning planning now for your 2013 W2's.  The W2's you issue this coming January 2013 will need to include the aggregate cost of their employer-sponsored coverage.  It is not the amount the employee paid, but rather the total cost of that employee's insurance.  This is just the beginning of employer mandates.  Stay tuned for many more to come.

If you have a question regarding changes that will be coming you can email Angela at angela@ansainsuranceservices.com or call at (714)680-5900. Check out our website for more general information at www.ansainsuranceservices.com .
