9/11/97: The U.S. Department of Labor
is requesting information from the public as to whether it should amend the existing
ERISA employee benefit plan claims procedures regulation. DOL says it wants to evaluate
"(1) The extent to which the current claims procedure regulation assures that group health plan
participants and beneficiaries are provided with effective and timely means to file and resolve
claims for health care benefits, and (2) whether and in what way the existing minimum
requirements should be amended with respect to group health plans covered by ERISA."
