ERISA Wrap Plan Document

This document is required if your business offers group medical benefits. The Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) requires plan administrators to give to participants and beneficiaries a Summary Plan Description (SPD) describing their rights, benefits, and responsibilities under the plan in understandable language. Failure to provide an SPD or plan document within 30 days of receiving a request from a plan participant or beneficiary can result in a penalty of up to $110 per day per participant or beneficiary for each violation. In addition, should you be audited by the Department of Labor and do not have a wrap document, it can result in a penalty of up to $161 per day (not to exceed $1,613 per request).

Good news! We will help you create the document after enrollment to be sure it’s done correctly.
