This session will help attendees understand how these obligations intersect and where employers are most likely to misstep. \nSpeaker: John Gardiner and the Bodman Law team

SUMMARY:Compliance Survival: Staying Ahead of ACA\, ERISA\, and State Regulations
DESCRIPTION:Benefit compliance can shift quickly\, especially when federal requirements and state developments do not move at the same speed. Midyear is the perfect time for employers to step back and assess whether their health plan and benefits compliance practices are keeping pace with changing rules. This session is designed to help employers understand what should still be on their radar and what issues deserve immediate attention before open enrollment season ramps up. \nSpeaker: John Gardiner and the Bodman Law team

SUMMARY:Consolidated Appropriations Act: Transparency\, Employer Reporting\, and Plan Governance
DESCRIPTION:The Consolidated Appropriations Act continues to shape how employers manage health plan transparency\, reporting\, and vendor oversight. While many requirements involve carriers\, TPAs\, PBMs\, and other partners\, employers and plan sponsors still need to understand what obligations apply\, who is responsible for each requirement\, and what documentation should be maintained. This session will help employers better understand key CAA requirements\, including transparency obligations\, employer reporting responsibilities\, gag clause attestations\, and other plan governance considerations that can impact compliance and fiduciary oversight. \nSpeaker: John Gardiner and the Bodman Law team
