Guest ItsJustMe Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 I'm aware than when a major change happens within the medical benefits a new SPD should go the employees within a certain amount of time. Does anyone know what constitues a "major" change? Does changing a plan from paying 90% after deductible to paying 80% after deductible constitute a "major" change? Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oriecat Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 You wouldn't have to send a new SPD, you can do a Summary of Material Modifications. That would definitely be a Material Reduction in covered services. See (d)(3) at the regulation below http://www.dol.gov/dol/allcfr/ebsa/Title_2...2520.104b-3.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
