Business Owners Don’t Agree With Mandates

Eighty-eight percent of business owners don’t think that it’s right for the Federal Government to force a state resident to buy health insurance, according to The Small Business Authority. In addition, only 9% believe they will have to purchase health insurance from the government while 53% believe the cost of healthcare is going to increase in the next two years. Barry Sloane, Chairman, president and CEO of The Small Business Authority said, “There is wide spread theory that the PPACA will clearly reduce choice for private carriers and allow remaining carriers to continue to raise premiums subject to government regulation.” For more information, visit www.hesba.com.
