Benefits Recordkeeping and Disclosures
National Summary
What do employers need to consider regarding benefits
recordkeeping and disclosures? The Employee Retirement Income
Security Act (ERISA) provides extensive reporting and disclosure
and other administrative requirements for employee benefit plans.
The law and regulations also provide for numerous exemptions from
the various requirements.
Additional disclosure requirements apply to health plans.
The Affordable Care Act (ACA) added many additional
reporting, disclosure, and notice requirements for health plans and
insurers, including additional internal and external appeal requirements
for health insurers and group health plans.
Since then, new laws
on health and retirement benefits have continued to add to plan sponsors’
disclosure obligations.
