The clock is ticking for businesses as PPACA's employer mandate draws near.

The new rules could do for deferred annuities what the Pension Protection Act of 2006 did for TDFs.

PPACA had set a $2,500 annual limit to FSAs, but the law also specified that the limit would increase to match the rise in the consumer price index starting in 2014.
