In Case You Missed It! Expiration of the COVID-19 Public Health and National Emergencies | What Employers and Plan Sponsors Need to Know

Employers and plan sponsors will be required to take certain actions in anticipation of the expiration of the COVID-19 Public Health Emergency (PHE) and National Emergency (NE).

This webinar discusses how to properly manage and unwind policy and design requirements placed upon employers and plan sponsors because of the PHE and NE. The termination of these declarations raises several questions on whether and how certain provisions will continue to apply. During this webinar we will review:

  • The various PHE and NE changes that have impacted group health plan administration (COBRA and HIPAA deadlines) and coverage (telehealth eligibility, COVID-19 testing and vaccination without cost sharing)

  • The policy and benefit decisions to be made

  • Recommendations on addressing policy and design updates

  • Process to implement changes
