ABOUT US

Tracking, Reporting, & IRS e-Filing   

BenefitScape is the leading US Employee Benefits company to focus exclusively on employer compliance under the Affordable Care Act (ACA).

This singular focus and our dedicated ACATech© platform enable us to free employers, with cost-saving efficiency, from all the pain, penalty risks, and resource burdens of ACA Compliance.

From performing an ACA Compliance Assessment, to tracking and calculating eligibility, through IRS coding and employee communications to the final IRS e-Filing, we work seamlessly with any client set-up, all data formats, and at any stage or throughout the compliance process. And, we don't stop when reporting is complete. We assist in necessary corrections, any IRS 226J responses, and establishing go-forward Risk Mitigation plans.

Please feel free to talk to us about how we can tailor BenefitScape’s ACA technology and services to work with your own specific operations and needs for Tax Year 2018. We are always happy to share our insights, including our Penalty Risk Assessment Service, which can help you identify and manage potential exposure incurred by prior ACA filings.

BenefitScape’s dedicated ACATech © platform, in-house experts, and operational flexibility enable us to customize our ACA Compliance services to work seamlessly with any employer set-up, any existing data formats, and at any stage or throughout the ACA Compliance process.

You can outsource your total ACA Compliance to BenefitScape as an end-to-end service, including tracking Part-Time and Variable Hour Employees if required, or we can fill in the gaps and join the dots of your existing operations.
