WHAT IS UNIQUE HEALTHCARE?
Unique Healthcare is a healthcare organization providing access to quality, affordable health care with our unique approach… Unique Care.
What is Minimum Essential Coverage (MEC)?
Minimum Essential Coverage (MEC) is health plan coverage that meets certain requirements under the Affordable Care Act (ACA).
A self-insured group health plan under which coverage is offered by an employer to employees is intended to constitute Minimum Essential Coverage with respect to an employee, so long as the plan provides preventive care at no cost sharing as required by the ACA. Regardless, MEC coverage is not intended to be used to eliminate all ACA penalties that may apply.
Please contact your tax advisor for more detail in this regard as Unique Healthcare makes no guarantees with regard to any ACA penalties that may apply to an employer that adopts MEC coverage for its employees.
The MEC Plus plan is a self-funded benefit plan, is NOT comprehensive insurance, and does NOT include hospitalization or most of the services classified as “essential health benefits” under the ACA.
