Inside This Issue


Revenue Procedure 2014-46 provides the 2014 monthly national average premium for qualified health plans that have a bronze level of coverage for taxpayers to use in determining their maximum individual shared responsibility payment under § 5000A(c)(1)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code and § 1.5000A-4 of the Income Tax Regulations.  This revenue procedure also provides an explanation of the methodology used to determine the monthly national average premium amount. 

Revenue Procedure 2014-37 provides the methodology to determine the applicable percentage table in § 36B(b)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code used to calculate an individual’s premium assistance credit amount for taxable years beginning after calendar year 2014.  It also provides the methodology to determine the required contribution percentage in § 36B(c)(2)(C)(i)(II) used to determine whether an individual is eligible for affordable employer-sponsored minimum essential coverage for purposes of § 36B for plan years beginning after calendar year 2014.  Additionally, Revenue Procedure 2014-37 reproduces the required contribution percentage, as determined under guidance issued by the Department of Health and Human Services, used to determine whether an individual is eligible for an exemption from the individual shared responsibility payment because of a lack of affordable minimum essential coverage under § 5000A(e)(1)(A) for plan years beginning after calendar year 2014.

Revenue Procedure 2014-41 provides calculation methods a taxpayer may use to resolve the interrelationship between the section 162(l) deduction and the premium tax credit under section 36B.  It provides an iterative calculation and alternative calculation taxpayers may use, as well as examples demonstrating the calculations.

Notice 2014-42 provides procedural guidance relating to the annual fee imposed on branded prescription drug manufacturers and importers under §9008 of the ACA.

The Revenue Procedures and Notice will appear in Internal Revenue Bulletin 2014-33, dated Aug. 11, 2014.
