Religious Hospital Ineligible for Church Plan Exemption, Third Circuit Rules
Bloomberg BNA 
Jan. 7, 2016
"Only a church -- and not a religious hospital -- can establish a church plan that is exempt from the notice and funding requirements of [ERISA], the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit has ruled. The Dec. 29 ruling is the first by a federal appeals court to consider the scope of ERISA's church plan exemption ... Affirming the lower court ruling, the Third Circuit rejected virtually every argument presented by Saint Peter's that the plan was a church plan." [Kaplan v. St. Peter's Healthcare System, No. 15-1172 (3d Cir. Dec. 29, 2015)]
