Cadillac Tax Delay and Additional ACA Tax Moratoriums
Posted 01.26.18
On Jan. 22, 2018, President Donald Trump signed into law a short-term continuing spending resolution to end the government shutdown and continue funding through Feb. 8, 2018. The continuing resolution impacts three taxes and fees under the Affordable Care Act (ACA).
Specifically, the continuing resolution:
- Delays implementation of the Cadillac tax on high-cost group health coverage until 2022;
- Provides an additional one-year moratorium on the health insurance providers fee for 2019 (although the fee continues to apply for 2018); and
- Extends the moratorium on the medical device excise tax for an additional two years, through 2019.
