This leads to a deep understanding of individual issues, but a lack of understanding of how benefit plans are structured to comply with technical and compliance mandates, including ERISA, the IRS, COBRA, HIPAA and more. This workshop provides a broad, basic understanding of how the rules work and how plans comply with those rules as well as educational content on ERISA – Plan Documents's, SPDs, Reporting, Fiduciary Duties; PPACA; Cafeteria Plans; Group Medical Plans; ADA/FMLA; COBRA; HIPAA; Medicare Part D; Fringe Benefits; Benefits Governance/Fiduciary best practices; Summary Plan Descriptions as well as recent compliance challenges.
