A provision of the law may fine employers $100 a day for every worker with less expensive health benefits than the C-suite and other highly paid employees. Self-insured companies have already been subject to these restrictions under Internal Revenue Service regulations, but the PPACA would apply similar restrictions to health plans companies purchase from insurers, according to the report.
