Health Care Reform Update: 60-day notice of plan changes

News Image 08-16-2010

Another health care reform law provision requires plans to create a uniform summary of benefits. And any material modifications to the terms of the plan must be communicated to members 60 days before those changes go into effect. Based on our review, we believe that the 60-day notice provision will not go into effect right away; however, it must be implemented before March 23, 2012 (two years after the law was enacted). The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services will be giving us more guidance on this provision. When it does, we will let you know.
