The Employer Shared Responsibility Reporting Under the Affordable Care Act (ACA) requires Applicable Large Employers (ALEs) and every provider of minimum essential coverage to report health insurance coverage the employer offers by filing an information return with the US Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and furnishing a statement to their full-time employees.
For an overview, see: Employer Shared Responsibility Reporting Under the Affordable Care Act (ACA) Administration
Use the ACA External 1095C Count window to report the count of Forms 1095-C submitted to the IRS outside of the Oracle Benefits application. This is useful when some portion of the employee population's 1095-C forms were generated by a third-party system outside of the Oracle Benefits application, others were generated using the Oracle Benefits application, and the Oracle Benefits application is used to file the authoritative 1094-C (transmission) with the IRS.
Note: Oracle Advanced Benefits does not support Form 1094-B and 1095-B. Do not enter any information regarding externally generated 1095-Bs.
In the Organization window, query the organization that you have classified as a GRE.
In the Organization Classifications region, select the GRE/Legal Entity classification, and click Others.
In the Additional Organization Information window, select ACA External 1095C Count. The ACA External 1095C Count window appears.
Populate the following fields as required.
Year: Select the reporting year.
Total 1095C (For Line 20): Enter a value for Form 1094-C Line 20 (the total number of 1095-C forms filed by or on behalf of the ALE). This number will be added to the count of 1095-C forms generated for the GRE within Oracle Benefits.
All Months: If the same number of full time employees with externally generated Forms 1095-C existed for all 12 months of the reporting year, then enter the value to be added to the count of employees for Part III (b), Full-Time Employee Count for ALE Member.
Jan...Dec: If the count of employees with externally generated Forms 1095-C varies for at least one of the months during the reporting year, enter the value to be added to the count of employees for Part III (b) Full-Time Employee Count for ALE Member for each applicable month.
