stbennet Posted January 7, 2013 Posted January 7, 2013 Wondering if anyone can point me to something concrete here. It comes up occasionally that I've got HCE's that wind up in each other's group because of the disparity between the EBAR and MVAR. Is there anything out there or does anyone have negative experience that this accrual rate "straddle" should be avoided or somehow is abusing a4 testing? Comments are appreciated.
AndyH Posted January 7, 2013 Posted January 7, 2013 HCEs cannot be in each others rate groups (unless both the NAR/EBAR and MVAR are identical). Each is in only one rate group. If a person's (including an HCE) EBAR/NAR and MVAR are not both equal to or higher to that of the the HCE forming a rate group, then the person is not in the rate group.
stbennet Posted January 7, 2013 Author Posted January 7, 2013 Sorry, wasn't thinking clearly. What I meant to illustrate is the situation where two HCE's are not in each other's group. So for example, a situation with two HCEs and the HCE denominator for each rate group is 1/2.
