The Affordable Care Act, or Obamacare, is dramatically changing how small- and mid-sized businesses must handle health care benefits. What’s more, many rules governing employer duties in 2014 and 2015 have been changing, creating more complexity.

The participants in this podcast are Jeff Englander, a senior vice president and senior research analyst at GE Capital, and Lawrence Gelburd, a Wharton instructor.
