Recorded Seminar
Michelle, GINA, CHIPRA and MHPAEA – How These Four Acts Recently Amended Cafeteria Plans
In this recording of a previously offered live web seminar conducted on June 25, 2010, we explore the four Acts which recently amended cafeteria plans – the Children’s Health Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2009 (CHIPRA), the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (GINA), the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act of 2008 (MHPAEA), and Michelle’s Law. We discuss the impact on plan documents that each Act made, along with the deadlines to timely adopt amendments for each Act, and the notice requirements for each Act, including the DOL’s Model CHIPRA Notice. This seminar is 60 minutes long and is designed to meet ASPPA’s and NIPA’s requirements for 1 CE credit. We have also applied with the IRS for 1 ERPA CPE credit for this program.
