FAQ
In general, ERISA does not cover plans established or maintained by governmental entities, churches for their employees, or plans which are maintained solely to comply with applicable workers compensation, unemployment or disability laws.
Most private sector health plans are covered by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA). Among other things, ERISA provides protections for participants and beneficiaries in employee benefit plans (participant rights), including providing access to plan information.
All private employers and employee organizations, such as unions, that offer health plans to employees have to follow ERISA. Only churches and government groups are exempt. If you offer your employees health coverage, you'll have to follow certain rules and procedures as a result of ERISA.
Some advantages of Non-ERISA plan include: A non-ERISA plan is not subject to annual 5500 reporting. A non-ERISA plan with over 100 participants does not require an annual audit. A non-ERISA plan is not subject to the strict ERISA fiduciary standards, but it is subject to state law and other standards.
Health insurance that is offered by a church or a governmental entity is not governed by ERISA. Neither are publicly- subsidized health insurance plans (such as Medicaid, NC Health Choice, or Medicare), or private health insurance bought in the non-group market.
In general, ERISA does not cover plans established or maintained by governmental entities, churches for their employees, or plans which are maintained solely to comply with applicable workers compensation, unemployment or disability laws.
Check Your Plan Documents: Review your Summary Plan Description (SPD) or other documents. ERISA plans must provide an SPD that clearly states they are an ERISA plan. Look at Employer Contributions: If your employer contributes to the plan or matches your contributions, it's likely an ERISA plan.
The Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) covers two types of retirement plans: defined benefit plans and defined contribution plans.
The main components of ERISA law revolve around employer-sponsored retirement plans and employee benefit plans. These comprehensive plans encompass various elements, including health insurance plans, retirement accounts, and other forms of employee benefits.
The plan document should contain: Name of the plan administrator. Designation of any named fiduciaries other than the plan administrator under the claims procedure for deciding benefit appeals. A description of the benefits provided. The standard of review for benefit decisions.
