Health Care Reform and Your Strategic Opportunities
As health care reform comes closer to becoming a reality, health plan sponsors need to understand the impact of the legislation on their programs and what steps they can take now to prepare for coming changes. As details of a final bill become clearer, employers are now able to review the impact of assessments under the play or pay mandates, as well as the impact of provisions such as the excise tax
on health plans.
Join us in March as we walk through critical details and reveal what to watch for as the final elements of the legislation are negotiated in Congress. This session will provide you with up-to-the-minute information as you develop strategic plans to respond to health care reform, while aligning existing health care plans with your organization’s needs.
Specific topics to be covered include:
• Pay or play mandates
• The tax-favored status of benefit plans

• Plan design alternatives
• Special advantages for “grandfathered” plans
• Impact on wellness initiatives
• COBRA and other administrative details
• New reporting and disclosure requirements
• Retiree programs
