How Employees can File Whistleblower Complaints under ACA

Written by Reed Tinsley | February 26, 2014

 

Employees are protected from retaliation for reporting alleged violations of the Affordable Care Act’s health coverage reforms (Title I of the Act) and for receiving a premium tax credit or a cost sharing reduction for enrolling in a qualified health plan. OSHA's Fact Sheet on Filing Whistleblower Complaints under the Affordable Care Act has been updated and is available in both English and Spanish. The revised fact sheet includes a summary of the Affordable Care Act, types of retaliation, coverage, and the process of filing a complaint.
