Covered California will begin contacting employers of Covered California individuals and families notifying them that their employee is receiving Obamacare premium assistance. Only employers for whom enrolled Covered California members have provided employer contact information will be sent the notification. The letters will alert the employer that they may be subject to the employer shared responsibility payment if they have 50 or more employees.
