Report: Few Firms Likely To Use Reform Law’s Tax Credit
Although 16.6 million U.S. residents are employed by small businesses that are eligible for health insurance tax credits under the federal health reform law, just 3.4 million of those workers are at firms expected to take advantage of the credit, according to a new report by the Commonwealth Fund. According to the report, most of the firms that will take advantage of the credit already offer their employees health insurance.
