What is the employer mandate?

Does Impact meet the standard for MEC (Minimum Essential Coverage)?

The ACA requires employers to offer MEC (Minimum Essential Coverage) to their employees if they have at least 50 full-time employees; this is known as the "employer mandate" and remains in effect today.


As a healthcare sharing organization, Impact DOES NOT meet the standard for MEC (Minimum Essential Coverage).

 

Therefore, organizations with 50 or more employees offering Impact Health Sharing must also offer a MEC program alongside Impact.
