DOL Issues New FAQs on ACA

The U.S. Department of Labor recently issued "FAQs about the Affordable Care Act Implementation Part XVI". 

These FAQs focus on "Notice of Coverage Options Available Through the Exchanges" and the "90-day Waiting Period Limitation". The questions addressed by the FAQs include:

"Q1: Is it permissible for another entity (such as an issuer, multiemployer plan, or third-party administrator) to send the Notice of Coverage Options on behalf of an employer to satisfy the employer's obligations under FLSA section 18B?...

Q2: Will the Departments be issuing final regulations under PHS Act section 2708 that give plans and issuers sufficient time to comply with the waiting period limitation?"

The FAQs are available here.
