HHS to work with non-profit organizations and tax preparers to help consumers understand the intersection of taxes and health care


U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ Secretary Sylvia M. Burwell announced today that HHS is collaborating with a wide range of non-profit organizations and some of the nation’s largest tax preparers to ensure that the public understands how health care and their taxes intersect. These groups provide resources, advice, and assistance to tax filers across the country. Some are offering on-the-ground, in person support, while others are providing online tools and software to help guide people through the tax filing process. Last year, 91 percent of taxpayers relied on software to do their taxes. This year many tax preparers and organizations updated their online tools to reflect the new Affordable Care Act requirements with the goal of helping consumers easily complete a timely and accurate tax return. Consumers can learn more about free tax assistance and filing options – including assistance in their community - by visiting www.IRS.gov/freefile or www.IRS.gov/VITA
