COBRA
Changes to COBRA compliance seem never-ending: the 1999 final regulations and 2001 "new final" regulations; the 1999 DOL opinion on election notices; and the 2002 "In Anticipation" release.
Additionally, costly lawsuits continue to plague employers, insurers, and administrators. For instance, one appeals court recently affirmed a $65,000 judgment for improper notice, and one employer recently incurred $32,000 in COBRA legal fees (over $654 in dental claims!).
While COBRA gets more complicated and litigious every year, we can provide the guidance and support so you know what to do when - and why. And we can offer guidance in a variety of formats that best fits your needs, schedule, and budget!
