Of particular interest during this volatile time in health care, their PPACA Employer Impact Report is distinctive from other models you may have seen or heard of in the marketplace. Using their proprietary cost and utilization model with the applicable State Insurance Exchanges and the employer's eligible census information, their analysis provides:  timeline, 10-year cost projection, exchange migration, plan termination scenarios, and plan relativities with state exchanges.
