Learning Activity/Discussion #2: "Healthcare Coverage and Entrepreneurship"
Critical to the Business Plan and ultimate employee attainment and sustained morale, it is necessary to understand and, if required, institute health care options. US Census Bureau data recently indicated that a considerable portion of the population, is uninsured. This does not include "underinsured" workers and dependents. Much of this increase resulted from loss of millions of jobs, and falling household income. Recent data also indicated that costs of insured plans will continue to rise, much of which will have to be borne by employees. In light of the Supreme Court affirmed Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act health care legislation ("Obamacare"), as well as the new Trump Administration policy present situation of failure for ending or revising it, discuss how healthcare related programs and issues will impact, both generally and for your proposed or ongoing small business and new venture development.
