IRS Issues FAQs About Tax Credit for Paid Family Leave

Responding to IRS Employer Mandate Assessment Letters
"Unless the IRS receives a response within 30 days, the agency will assume that its facts and penalty amount are correct. It appears that employers will be notified of 2016 proposed assessments either later in 2018 or in 2019. Providing the IRS with updated information or correcting filing errors is likely to reduce or even eliminate the assessment."

Emerging Risks for Employer-Sponsored Health Plans
"Allegedly defective COBRA notices have resulted in three class action settlements against the employer sponsoring the plan and responsible for the COBRA compliance as the plan sponsor in recent years.... The change in the individual mandate penalty to $0 in 2019 coupled with the additional flexibility in what is covered in individual policies on the exchanges my mean that employees may look to alternative coverage through an exchange or to opt out of coverage entirely in 2019, so employers should be certain that their rules for enrollment and special enrollments are clearly communicated to preclude the risk of adverse selection."

2018 Colorado Employer-Provided Benefits Survey Report (PDF)
18 pages. "Colorado employers reported that their average increase before plan design changes was 7.7 percent. However, their final rate increase after plan changes was reduced to 5.8 percent.... Employers identified the prescription drug costs as the most significant factor affecting plan rate increases.... Last year, for the first time in the 1 7-year history of this survey, the number of employers (47.7 percent) offering a self-funded plan outpaced the number of employers (35.5 percent) offering fully insured plans."

Paid Sick Leave Requirements Beginning to Resemble a Crazy Quilt of Legislation
"The basic starting point is to determine whether you can use a 'one-size-fits-all' policy and whether it makes sense to do that.... Trying to use a single policy means committing to the most generous (employee-friendly) options in each jurisdiction, including those locations where the law does not require such a level of generosity."

Medicare Advantage: The Future Model of Care
"Medicare Advantage plans have set a good example for the healthcare industry by providing greater transparency and accountability -- and moving towards outcomes-based payments. The star-ratings system for plans has given consumers more transparency into their care and has pushed insurers to improve the quality of their services to compete."
