> Indemnity Indemnity plans are also referred to as “fee-for-service.” Unlike managed-care plans, indemnity plans allow absolute freedom in selecting physicians or medical facilities and permit self-referral to a specialist.
> Dependent Property This refers to a kind of business-interruption endorsement on a commercial policy that protects you from financial losses caused by problems somewhere other than your business. “Dependent property” is defined as property not owned, operated or controlled by you but on which you are dependent for normal business operations.
> COBRA Benefits COBRA stands for “Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985,” which requires companies with 20 or more employees to offer separating employees the option to continue their group health-care coverage at their own expense.
ERISA permits a parent to obtain a court order to provide coverage for children under the noncustodial parent’s health plan (called a qualified medical child support order).
ERISA Disclosure Provisions help to ensure that individuals covered by group health plans receive clear information about their rights, benefits, and obligations under the plan, including information about COBRA continuation coverage, access to urgent or specialized care, and composition of physician and other provider networks.
HIPAA includes protections for newborns and adopted children with preexisting conditions. Specifically, HIPAA does not permit a preexisting condition exclusion to be applied to a newborn or adopted child who enrolls within 30 days of birth or adoption.
ERISA Claims Procedures help ensure timely and fair review of plan denials of claims.
