Medicare and Health Plans
With a more diverse workforce, employers are receiving additional questions from employees regarding how Medicare enrollment interacts with, or otherwise affects, coverage under an employer-sponsored health benefit plan.
In this session, we will explore the interaction between group health plans and Medicare and answer many of the questions employers/plan sponsors are asking about Medicare coverage, including:
- Does eligibility for Medicare affect group health plan coverage?
- How does Medicare coordinate benefits with group health plans?
- How does Medicare entitlement affect eligibility to contribute to an HSA?
- Does Medicare entitlement allow for a corresponding mid-year change to health coverage elections?
- How does Medicare entitlement impact eligibility for COBRA continuation coverage?
- What are the Medicare Secondary Payer rules, and what do employers/plan sponsors need to know about them?
- When plan participants have coverage under a group health plan and are eligible for or covered by Medicare, what are an employer/plan sponsor’s reporting and disclosure obligations?
