A Saugerties, N.Y., man who admitted he illegally accepted workers’ compensation benefits over a three-year span was sentenced to 30 days in jail and five years of probation upon release.
As a direct result of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) – also known as ObamaCare – health insurance agent and broker commissions have been slashed by as much as 50%. Agencies have been forced to lay off employees, limit products and services, shift to other lines, and have seen significant drops in compensation.
