Filing an ERISA Claim: Step-by-Step Guide Step 1: Review Your Plan. The first step in filing an ERISA claim is to review your disability insurance policy thoroughly. Step 2: Gather Evidence. Step 3: File Your Claim. Step 4: Wait for a Decision. Step 5: Appeal if Necessary.

All private employers and employee organizations, such as unions, that offer health plans to employees have to follow ERISA. Only churches and government groups are exempt. If you offer your employees health coverage, you'll have to follow certain rules and procedures as a result of ERISA.

Basic ERISA compliance requires employers provide notice to participants about plan information, their rights under the plan, and how the plan is funded. This includes ensuring plans comply with ERISA's minimum standards, recordkeeping, annual filing and reporting, and fiduciary compliance.

ERISA requires a written plan document for each employee health and welfare benefit plan. A sponsor may choose among several different approaches to meet these plan document requirements. Assume an employer sponsors medical, dental, life insurance and long-term disability benefits.

Active enforcement activities include investigations, lawsuits, and the dissemination of information. Documents published by EBSA include the Reporting and Disclosure Guide for Employee Benefit Plans.

A common rule of thumb is any employer that offers a group-sponsored health plan must comply with the ERISA notice and disclosure, and possibly, reporting requirements unless an exemption applies.

Under the ACA, employers with a certain number of employees must offer affordable health insurance coverage to their eligible employees. ERISA provides the framework for employers to meet these obligations, ensuring that employers properly administer health benefit plans and adhere to the ACA's coverage requirements.

ERISA's protections apply to most employees' retirement plans, including 401(k) and pension plans. These include both defined-benefit and defined-contribution plans. Plans not covered by ERISA include government- and church-sponsored plans, IRAs and Social Security.

Under ERISA, each person must be bonded for at least 10% of the $1 million or $100,000. (Note: Bonds covering more than one plan may be required to be over $500,000 to meet the ERISA requirement because persons covered by a bond may handle funds or other property for more than one plan.)

ERISA stands for Employee Retirement Income Security Act, which is a federal law that sets minimum standards for retirement plans in the private sector. Non-ERISA plans, on the other hand, are not governed by ERISA and are not subject to its regulations.
