1 Summary Plan Descriptins All grup health plans subject t the Emplyee Retirement Incme Security Act (ERISA) are required t prvide participants with a Summary Plan Descriptin (SPD). An SPD must be written in a manner calculated t be understd by the average plan participant and must be sufficiently cmprehensive t infrm the participant f his r her rights and bligatins under the plan. This article addresses many f the cmmnly asked questins abut SPDs. It als cntains a checklist fr the basic infrmatin that is required t be included in an SPD. What is a Summary Plan Descriptin? An SPD is a dcument that is prvided t plan participants t explain the plan s benefits, claims review prcedures and participants rights. ERISA cntains standards fr: The infrmatin that must be included in the SPD; and Hw the SPD must be distributed t participants. Sme plan spnsrs mistakenly believe that prviding participants with the bklet issued by the insurance cmpany fulfills their bligatin t prvide participants with an SPD. The insurance bklet will ften cntain detailed infrmatin regarding plan benefits and cverage. Hwever, in many cases, the plan spnsr will need t prvide additinal infrmatin that is nt cntained within the insurance bklet t cmply with the SPD cntent requirements. Are all grup health plans required t prvide participants with an SPD? All grup health plans subject t ERISA must prvide participants with an SPD, regardless f size. Bth insured and self-funded grup health plans must cmply with ERISA s SPD requirements. While ERISA cntains an exceptin fr certain grup health plans with less than 100 plan participants, that exceptin nly applies t reprting requirements (fr example, Frm 5500 filings) and des nt apply t SPDs. D SPDs need t be filed with the Department f Labr (DOL)? N. While ERISA initially required plans with 100 r mre participants t file an SPD with the DOL, the Taxpayer Relief Act f 1997 eliminated the autmatic filing requirement. Hwever, plans must file an SPD within 30 days f a request frm the DOL. If the plan administratr fails t prvide the SPD within 30 days, the DOL may impse a civil penalty f up t $110 per day fr each day the failure cntinues, up t a maximum penalty f $1,100 per request. Multiple requests fr the same r similar dcuments are cnsidered separate requests.
2 When must an SPD be prvided t a plan participant? Participants must receive an SPD: Within 120 days f the plan becming subject t ERISA (fr example, a new grup health plan); Within 90 days f enrllment, fr new participants; Within 30 days f a participant s written request fr an SPD; Every five years, if material mdificatins are made during that perid; r Every 10 years, if n amendments ccur. As a practical matter, t help participants understand their plan benefits, plan administratrs shuld prvide new participants with SPDs and distribute updated SPD infrmatin t current participants as sn as pssible. When must changes t the SPD be cmmunicated t plan participants? A summary f material mdificatin (SMM) must be prvided within 210 days after the clse f the plan year in which the change was adpted. If benefits r services are materially reduced, participants must be prvided ntice: Within 60 days frm adptin; r Within 90 days frm adptin, if participants receive such infrmatin frm the plan administratr at regular intervals f nt mre than 90 days. In additin t the SPD, the Affrdable Care Act (ACA) requires plan administratrs and issuers t prvide participants with a summary f benefits and cverage (SBC). As a related requirement, under the ACA, plan administratrs and issuers must prvide 60 days advance ntice f any material mdificatin t plan terms r cverage that takes effect mid-plan year. The 60-day ntice can be prvided t participants thrugh an updated SBC r by issuing an SMM. A material mdificatin is any change t a plan s cverage that (independently r in cnnectin with ther changes taking place at the same time) wuld be cnsidered by the average plan participant t be an imprtant change in cvered benefits r ther terms f cverage. Hw may SPDs be distributed t participants? The plan administratr is required t prvide the SPD t participants in a manner reasnably calculated t ensure actual receipt f the material by the participant. The fllwing are examples f acceptable methds f delivery: In-hand delivery t emplyees at their wrksite (merely psting infrmatin in a cmmn area is nt acceptable); Included within a peridical distributed t emplyees (fr example, a unin newsletter r cmpany publicatin); U.S. mail, including first-, secnd- r third-class (use f secnd- r third-class mail is acceptable nly if return and frwarding pstage is guaranteed and address crrectin is requested. Any material sent by secnd- r third-class mail that is returned with an address crrectin must be sent again by first-class mail r persnally delivered t the participant at his r her wrksite); r Electrnic media (DOL regulatins include a safe harbr prvisin applicable t electrnic delivery f SPDs).
3 What infrmatin must be cntained within an SPD? ERISA and its regulatins require that an SPD be sufficiently cmprehensive in rder t infrm participants f their rights and bligatins under the plan. The attached SPD Checklist utlines basic items that must be included in an SPD. Des ERISA require that SPDs be prvided in a language ther than English? N. While ERISA des nt require that an SPD be prvided in a nn-english language, in sme cases the SPD must include a prminently displayed ntice that assistance in a nn-english language cmmn t the plan participants is available. Sample language is prvided within the attached SPD Checklist. A plan is required t include this ntice in the fllwing cases: Plan Size* (number f plan participants) Less than 100 Greater than 100 *At the beginning f the plan year. Number f Participants wh are literate nly in the same nn-english language 25% r mre Lesser f: 500 r mre; r 10% r mre. Example: An emplyer maintains a grup health plan that cvers 1,000 plan participants. At the beginning f the plan year 500 participants are literate nly in Spanish, 101 are literate nly in Vietnamese, and the remaining are literate in English. Each f the 1,000 plan participants must receive an SPD that cntains a ntice in bth Spanish and Vietnamese explaining the ability t btain assistance with understanding the SPD. If the SPD cntains infrmatin n COBRA rights, is it still necessary t send an initial COBRA ntice? In rder fr the SPD t als fulfill an emplyer s bligatin t prvide an initial COBRA ntice, the SPD must: Be mailed via first-class mail t the participant s hme; Be addressed t the participant and cvered dependents; and Cntain all f the infrmatin required t be included in an initial COBRA ntice. Hw has the Affrdable Care Act (ACA) affected SPD disclsure requirements? The ACA des nt change ERISA s verall cntent r distributin requirements fr SPDs. Hwever, if the ACA affects a health plan s benefits r terms f cverage, the changes must be described in the plan s SPD (r cmmunicated t participants thrugh an SMM). Fr example, the ACA requires nn-grandfathered plans t cver certain preventive health services withut any cst-sharing. T the extent a health plan is affected by this requirement, it shuld be cmmunicated t participants thrugh an updated SPD (r SMM). What is the Summary f Benefits and Cverage (SBC) that plans must start prviding under the ACA? The ACA expanded ERISA's disclsure requirements by requiring that a summary f benefits and cverage (SBC) with specific cntent standards be prvided t applicants and enrllees befre enrllment r re-enrllment. The SBC must accurately describe the
4 benefits and cverage under the applicable plan r cverage. This SBC requirement applies in additin t ERISA's SPD requirements. The cmpliance deadline t begin prviding the summary f benefits and cverage was as fllws: Issuers must prvide the SBC t health plans effective Sept. 23, Plans and issuers must prvide the SBC t participants and beneficiaries wh enrll r re-enrll during an pen enrllment perid beginning with the first pen enrllment perid that began n r after Sept. 23, Fr participants wh enrll in cverage ther than thrugh an pen enrllment perid (fr example, newly eligible individuals and special enrllees), plans and issuers must prvide the SBC beginning with the first plan year that began n r after Sept. 23, Yu may cntact JGS Insurance fr assistance in reviewing an SPD prepared n yur behalf by an insurance carrier, third party administratr r legal cunsel.
