Plan Sponsor has a weekly feature to help plan sponsors understand what they need to do to prepare for the impact of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA). Groom principals, Christy Tinnes and Brigen Winters, serve as the health care reform experts and field weekly questions regarding the new law. The weekly questions are compiled and published each month in the “Second Opinion” column in Plan Sponsor Magazine.

This week’s column addresses the following questions:

  • What is the amount of the PPACA health coverage fee to fund comparative effectiveness research, and for what years does it apply?
  • What types of health insurance policies and self-insured health plans are subject to the PPACA health coverage fee to fund comparative effectiveness research?
  • These Q&As first appeared online on in July. As health care law is rapidly evolving, there may be further developments since the initial publication.
