Affordable Care Act requires that the
Small Business health Option Program
(SHOP) assist qualified small employers

criteria must require plans to utilize a
uniform enrollment form that qualified
employers may use. Further, section

model application and Web site that
assists employers in determining if they

employee application,’’ which will be
used to determine eligibility.
The information will be required of
each employee upon initial application
with subsequent information collections
for the purposes of confirming accuracy
of previous submissions or updating
information from previous submissions.
Information collection will begin during
initial open enrollment in October 2013,
per § 155.410 of the Exchanges Final
Rule. Applications for the SHOP will be
collected year round, per the rolling
enrollment requirements of § 155.725 of
the Exchanges Final Rule.
Employees will be able to submit an
application for the SHOP online, using
a paper application, over the phone
through a call center operated by an
Exchange, or in person through an
agent, broker, or Navigator, per
§ 155.730(f) of the Exchanges Final Rule.
If an employee does not enroll in
coverage through the SHOP, the
information will be erased after a
specified period of time. If an employee
enrolls in coverage through the SHOP,
the information will be retained to
document the enrollment, to allow
reconciliation with issuer records, and
to provide information for future
coverage renewals or changes in
coverage.
Every qualified employee of an
employer participating in the SHOP
who wishes to apply for coverage
through the SHOP will need to complete
an application to determine his or her
eligibility. The applicant will also be
asked to verify his or her understanding
of the application and sign attestations
regarding information in the
application. The completed application
will be submitted to the SHOP in the
employer’s state.
Applicants who choose to complete
the electronic application will need to
create an online account at the
beginning of the application process.
We estimate that it will take
approximately 0.159 hours (9.53
minutes) per applicant to submit a
completed paper application. The
Congressional Budget Office (CBO)
estimates approximately 3 million
people will enroll in health insurance
through a SHOP in 2014. Assuming
family size of approximately 3 per
employee, we expect approximately 1
million employees to complete an
application in 2014 for a total of
approximately 93,300 burden hours.
CBO estimates approximately 2
million people will enroll in health
insurance through a SHOP in 2015 and
3 million in 2016. Consequently, we
estimate that approximately 666,666
employees will apply to a SHOP in 2015
