  • Continuing issues with determining full-time status under the Affordable Care Act (ACA)
  • Determining affordability under ACA employer play or pay mandate for opt-out payments and other special situations
  • ACA reporting challenges in 2016 and changes for 2017

LOSS CONTROL TOPIC OF THE MONTH

Emergency Preparedness

This past year, RHA members experienced:
  • Two fires involving guest lodging. In each instance, guests were safely evacuated in the middle of the night. The buildings were a total loss
  • A Norovirus outbreak
  • A sewer line break, causing a kitchen and restaurant to be closed for three months
  • Severe flooding, leading to cancellation of the resort's PGA-sanctioned golf tournament
  • Three laundry fires, causing the resorts to outsource all laundry until completion of repairs/reconstruction
  • Damage from Hurricane Matthew
Is your property prepared for such emergencies?

RHA's loss control focus for January is Emergency Preparedness. Start the new year off right by reviewing your Emergency Response Plan and training employees to put it into action when a crisis hits.
