Form 1095-C is used by employers with 50 or more full-time (or full-time equivalent) employees to report Minimum Essential Coverage (MEC) under section 6055 and the offer of coverage under section 6056 to the IRS.

Form 1095-C reports whether employers offered coverage to their employees, if the coverage was affordable according to ACA standards, and provides a couple of details about the cost of coverage offered.

The 1095-C has 3 parts:

  • Part I identifies the employee and employerPart II indicates the period of coverage and states the lowest cost plan that was available at that time
