Hinshaw & Culbertson LLP Link to more items from this source
[Guidance Overview]
Oct. 7, 2021

"The opinion came in the form of an Information Letter issued in response to an inquiry from a claimant's attorney who sought guidance after a plan administrator declined to produce an audio recording of a conversation on the grounds that a record of the call had been produced and the recording was for quality assurance purposes only. The DOL held that these justifications were inconsistent with ERISA's regulations."
