Health Action Council recently hosted a webinar entitled COVID, COBRA, and the Consolidated Appropriations Act 2021 (CAA): Understanding Recent Legal Guidance, hosted by Kim Wilcoxon, Employee Benefits/Health and Welfare Partner, Thompson Hine.
COVID-19 has spurred a number of new laws and agency guidance directly impacting employers’ group health plans. The changes are coming fast and furious, leaving benefit professionals little time to understand and respond to them.
Here's what we discussed:
- COVID-19 Vaccine – ERISA, HIPAA, and wellness program issues
- FSA relief options
- Outbreak period deadline extensions
- COBRA subsidies
- Mental health parity NQTL comparative analyses
Due to the critical nature and the ever evolving directives, we encourage all employers to DOWNLOAD SLIDES and view the video below.
