Text of DOL Self-Compliance Tool for Part 7 of ERISA: HIPAA, MHPAEA and Other Health Care-Related Provisions (PDF)
Employee Benefits Security Administration [EBSA], U.S. Department of Labor [DOL]
[Guidance Overview] Nov. 19, 2014
68 pages; updated Nov. 19, 2014. "This self-compliance tool is useful for group health plans, plan sponsors, plan administrators, health insurance issuers, and other parties to determine whether a group health plan is in compliance with some of the provisions of Part 7 of ERISA.... While this self-compliance tool does not necessarily cover all the specifics of these laws, it is intended to assist those involved in operating a group health plan to understand the laws and related responsibilities. It provides an informal explanation of the statutes and the most recent regulations and interpretations and includes citations to the underlying legal provisions.... [S]ome of the provisions discussed involve issues for which the rules have not yet been finalized. Proposed rules, interim final rules, and transition periods generally are noted."
