WASHINGTON DC--(Marketwired - Jun 27, 2013) - Sage North America today announced a new learning track around health care reform at Sage Summit 2013, along with the premier sponsors of the conference. Sage Summit is the annual conference for the Sage ecosystem that includes partners, customers, and employees, to be held at the Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center in Washington, D.C. July 21-26, 2013. <\/p>\n
Learning Track Focuses on Prepping Small and Medium Businesses for Health Care Reform Provisions <\/p>\n
The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) is the most significant regulatory overhaul of the US Health Care System since the passage of Medicare and Medicaid in 1965. New regulations will undoubtedly affect nearly all small and midsized businesses, and in an effort to prepare its customers with the tools they need to understand the various impacts of the PPACA, Sage has launched a new learning track for attendees of Sage Summit 2013, breaking down the subject matter by topic. <\/p>\n
Attendees of the all-day learning track will walk away understanding what the PPACA means for their business, how it will impact the bottom line, what responsibilities they have as business owners, executives, and HR managers, and what steps should be taken now to prepare for provisions starting in 2014. Health care expert Henry Aaron of the Brookings Institute and President and CEO of BenefitMall Bernard DiFiore will be on-site at Sage Summit to lead content-rich keynote sessions followed by breakout sessions that focus on key provisions and compliance requirements, benefit options, health insurance carriers, and what all of this means for business owners, their employees, and their bottom line. <\/p>\n
