Important 2016 Tax Information Form 1095-B (Health Coverage)

Why am I getting a Form 1095-B, Health Coverage?

The Health Pool of South Dakota is sending Form 1095-B to all individuals who were enrolled in health coverage during 2016. The Affordable Care Act requires people to have health coverage that meets certain standards, also called minimum essential coverage. An individual without minimum coverage can claim an exemption or make a payment with their tax return.

The self-funded coverage provided by the Health Pool of South Dakota is minimum essential coverage.

Form 1095-B provides information that you may need to complete your Federal income tax return. We have also given this information to the IRS.

What do I need to do?

j If you had health coverage for all 12 months of 2016, you’ll just need to check a box on your Federal income tax return indicating you had minimum essential coverage. j If you had other health coverage during any part of 2016, check with that provider to see if that plan’s coverage was minimum essential coverage. j If you didn’t have coverage with the Health Pool of

South Dakota or other minimum essential coverage for all 12 months of 2016, and you don’t qualify for an exemption from the requirement to have coverage, you may have to pay a fee when you file your taxes.

Keep this form 1095-B with your other important tax information, like any Form 1099 or W-2 you may receive. You DO NOT need to send this form to the IRS when you file your income tax return.

For more information concerning this form please contact: Sandi Larson South Dakota Municipal League 800.658.3633 sandi@sdmunicipalleague.org
