SUMMARY:Another Healthcare Fiduciary Lawsuit — Are You Next?
DESCRIPTION:Another major employer is facing an ERISA fiduciary lawsuit—this time\, it’s JPMorgan\, marking the 4th employer accused of mismanaging health benefit plans. With similar cases already targeting J&J\, Wells Fargo\, and others\, it’s clear that employers are now under the same legal scrutiny in health care that 401(k) plans faced years ago. \nSo\, what do these lawsuits have in common? More importantly\, how can employers protect themselves from being the next target and what lessons can we learn from these lawsuits. \nJoin us to learn: – The key risks hidden in PBM contracts that could expose employers to lawsuits – How fiduciary oversight can prevent costly legal battles and optimize plan performance – What steps employers must take now to protect their plans\, employees\, and bottom line – Save your spot now! Don’t wait until you’re the next employer under fire. \nDisclaimer: This webinar is intended solely for educational purposes. The National Alliance refrains from providing commentary on fiduciary legal matters or discussing organizations currently involved in litigation.

SUMMARY:Improving Population Health: Why Linking Benefit Design with Health and Safety Matters

SUMMARY:Webinar: Implications for Employers of Supreme Court Decision Ending Chevron Doctrine
DESCRIPTION:On Friday\, June 28\, 2024\, the Supreme Court issued a landmark decision in two interlinked cases that overturn a 40-year-old precedent\, significantly weakening the regulatory power of federal officials. This decision is expected to have profound implications for the entire healthcare industry\, with many current federal regulations governing self-insured health plans potentially under threat. In the future\, regulators at the Departments of Labor and Health and Human Services will have significantly less leeway in interpreting vague or ambiguous federal laws. \nNoted healthcare legal and policy expert\, Chris Deacon\, JD\, will provide a detailed analysis of the Supreme Court decision and its likely impact on self-insured employers. This presentation will include a discussion of: \nWhich current regulatory structures may change under the new precedent.\nHow regulators are likely to respond to the changes. Implications for congressional action affecting self-funded employers and purchasers. \nOpportunities and threats for self-funded employers and purchasers under the new legal framework. \nREGISTER
