Learn valuable insights and strategies from industry experts.
In April 2020 the DOL and IRS issued joint guidance to allow certain employee benefit deadlines to be extended during the COVID19 National Emergency. This impacted COBRA, special enrolment notifications and claim adjudication. Recent joint guidance has clarified that the time has run out for SOME of the deadlines but not all. Plan administrators and third-party administrators as well as other insurance professionals now find themselves with trying to determine which deadlines have ended and which deadlines to extend. Some events will need to be handled on an individual basis! The DOL and IRS have also highlighted that Plan Administrators do have fiduciary responsibilities to handle this right.
