Healthcare Industry News > Businesses Resisting Health Insurance Efforts by Local Governments Businesses Resisting Health Insurance Efforts by Local GovernmentsWhile states and local governments are taking the initiative on the issue of health care in the United States, many businesses are fighting back against policy changes they view as unfair. In San Francisco, for example, the Golden Gate Restaurant Association sued to stop the city's new health care plan from going into action because it requires employers to spend a certain amount on health insurance per worker. One restaurant owner said he would end up spending an additional $76 per employee under the new plan and would inevitably be forced to cut back on staffing.Many businesses are banking on a Federal law that says local and state governments can not tell them which benefits to offer employees. This law led to the initial victory by the Golden Gate Restaurant Association, but the ruling has been stayed while San Francisco appeals the decision. The outcome of their case may have serious implications in other places, including California, Minnesota, and New York. Read original story in usatoday.com |
