Employee Benefits Compliance

office learning about Employee Benefits ComplianceOne of the more complicated tasks business owners and HR administrators face is the maintenance of employee benefits and following employee benefits compliance regulations. Offering a great benefits package can impress job candidates and encourage your employees to remain loyal, but managing those benefits and adhering to the federal laws governing group health coverage can be a challenge.

Bigger employers must adhere to additional compliance requirements, and failing to do so can hurt your business significantly.

Employee Benefits Compliance Assistance

Benefits compliance services can help to ensure your business stays compliant amid ever-changing regulations. Staying on top of the latest developments in this area is a time-consuming task, and many businesses find that getting professional assistance from experts like those at New City Insurance takes the stress and uncertainty out of the process. Here is a look at just some of the areas that need to be considered.

Affordable Care Act (ACA)

business women smiling with her Employee benefits complianceThe Affordable Care Act, or ACA, has complex requirements and penalty rules for certain large employers. There are rules relating to the type of health coverage offered, the dollar limits, out-of-pocket maximums, preexisting conditions, preventive care services, clinical trials, coverage of dependents, and patient protections when it comes to their choice of health care professionals, among other factors to consider. Staggered effective dates for various reforms can make compliance even more challenging.

Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (COBRA)

Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act, or COBRA, applies to any employer that had 20 or more employees during at least half of the business days in the previous calendar year. It requires an employer to provide those employees who might lose their group health coverage due to a qualifying event the chance to continue group health coverage, and it is important to have a thorough understanding of how it works.

Employment Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA)

The Employment Retirement Income Security Act, or ERISA, pertains to employee welfare benefit plans, and it comes with a slew of compliance obligations and reporting requirements.

Family And Medical Leave Act (FMLA)

The Family and Medical Leave Act, or FMLA, provides eligible employees at businesses with 50 or more employees with job-protected leave for certain medical and family reasons, such as childbirth, adoption, serious illness or the care of an immediate family member with a serious health condition. Employers are required to maintain group health care coverage during FMLA leave at the same level at which it would have been provided had the worker not taken leave.

Health Insurance Portability And Accountability Act (HIPAA)

presentation talking about Employee benefits complianceThe Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, or HIPAA, has portability rules that help people to transition between health care coverage types, and they prohibit discrimination based on an individual’s health status. There are also certain exemptions to keep in mind.

As a rapidly expanding national media organization, the employee benefits strategy and administration that New City has provided us during our growth has been invaluable. They have been proactive about informing us of the different benefit strategies available to us as we grow as well as managing the additional compliance laws and reporting requirements at each stage of our growth.

I never expected to have a good time talking to an insurance salesman, but let me tell you Brendan was quite the treat. He was very helpful explaining the options and has a wonderful sense of humor. I hope to speak with him every time I call.

Eric Calciano has been extremely helpful in finding and selecting the right insurance coverage for our company. With many options out there Eric assisted us on getting a low cost provider saving more than 20% than from our competitors and providing excellent coverage for our employees.

Jeff Stoltey and his team provide excellent customer service. Jeff has always provided my company SFCC with straightforward options. I went to a larger insurance company only to RUN BACK to Jeff at New City Insurance. I recommend them to anyone needing insurance without hesitation.

Eric was so great with us. He was very patient and kind as we are a newer smaller organization who is growing rapidly. With that said, we had made our inquiry, he had great rapid response and mostly had to wait on me. Any request that we made and/or questions we had, he was great answering and helping us understand. Then when we were ready for all documents and to move forward, Brendan helped with getting that together and the two of them worked their magic on New City's end to notify me of what was needed, assist me in that process and confirming that all was complete and approved for the coverage. I just want to say thank you all again so much, as insurance has always been confusing to me, and you all made that process go a lot smoother.Thank you

I've been working with both Clayton and Brendan for well over a year. As the purchase of our dental practice was delayed well over 14 months they both patiently supported me and continued to make themselves available. When we were officially ready to sign up they made the whole process seamless and super easy. This team is highly knowledgeable, professional, supportive, and efficient! I can't thank them enough for everything they've done.

Jeff Stoltey is so awesome...even thru my company had only two employees, he took the time each year to research and find the best plan for us. The only reason I am leaving New City Insurance is because we no longer have any employees. Thank you Jeff

NCI handled almost everything from start to finish. Clayton and Brendan made the plans easy to understand and walked me through the application process. They got me my ID numbers before my cards arrived so that I could keep an appointment I had already scheduled. My last broker wouldn't have done that. 5 stars!

Our staff was interested in a health plan, but we didn't know how beneficial a solid employee benefits package would be for our business to expand. We'd lose prospective employees because they had more options for their medical insurance which was sometimes more valuable than more pay. The New City team was amazing and gave us as many affordable options as possible so that everyone had their needs met.

My employer uses New City as their insurance broker, and I'm always amazed when I call in for assistance by how knowledgeable and attentive their staff is with my requests. Their online benefits platform makes selecting insurance plans pretty darn easy. I would highly recommend their services.
