MDG Benefit Solutions, in partnership with NFP, will host a weekly Benefit Compliance COVID-19 update. Our compliance team will address the impact of COVID-19, starting with the recently Enacted Families First Coronavirus Response Act.
We will also address:
1) situations relating to benefit plan eligibility and coverage during a furlough, layoff or reduction in hours;
2) plan document and SPD issues;
3) ACA issues (including measurement and stability periods during a furlough/layoff);
4) COBRA responsibility and timing;
5) HDHP/HSA interaction with COVID-19 mandated coverage;
6) state issues (such as mandates on coverage, expansion of paid family and medical leave protections, and delayed filing requirements); and
7) HIPAA and other privacy issues.
