| 2011-30918 | Filings Required of Multiple Employer Welfare Arrangements and Certain Other Related Entities | Proposed Rule | This document contains a proposed rule under title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) that, upon adoption, would implement reporting requirements for multiple employer welfare arrangements (MEWAs) and certain other entities that offer or provide health benefits for employees of two or more employers. The proposal amends existing reporting rules to incorporate new provisions enacted as part of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (Affordable Care Act) to more clearly address the reporting obligations of MEWAs that are ERISA plans. This regulation is designed to impose the minimal amount of burden on legally compliant MEWAs and entities claiming exception (ECEs) while implementing the Secretary's authority to take enforcement action against fraudulent or abusive MEWAs included in the Affordable Care Act and working to protect health benefits for businesses and their employees. This proposed rule implements the new provisions while preserving the filing structure and provisions of the 2003 regulations which direct plan MEWAs and non-plan MEWAs to report annually and file upon registration or origination. Elsewhere in this edition of the Federal Register, the Employee Benefits Security Administration (EBSA) is publishing a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking related to the Secretary's new enforcement authority with respect to MEWAs and Notices of proposed revisions of the Form M-1 and the Form 5500. | 2011-12-06 | 2011 | 12 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2011/12/06/2011-30918/filings-required-of-multiple-employer-welfare-arrangements-and-certain-other-related-entities | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2011-12-06/pdf/2011-30918.pdf | Labor Department; Employee Benefits Security Administration | 271,131 | This document contains a proposed rule under title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) that, upon adoption, would implement reporting requirements for multiple employer welfare arrangements (MEWAs) and certain other entities that... |
