I have a taxpayer who is from France. He has received his social security card and will be starting a business in America. He currently receives his health care from his native country France. Is there an exemption for this under the ACA?

You would have to find out if his French coverage meets minimum essential coverage in the US.
A quick glance at the French website for the health insurance for expats, does not look like it would meet MEC standards, they would need to purchase a supplemental insurance plan called wellaway. Look at the Sept 15 notice here:

I have found out now that he has dual citizenship.
