Medicare impacts employer administration and employee utilization of their group medical insurance plan in many ways. Employers need to manage:

  • Coordination of benefits between Medicare and the group health plan
  • Reporting
  • Medicare and HSA contribution pitfalls
  • Open enrollment periods
  • Claim subrogation

This webinar will help you confidently manage benefits for Medicare-eligible employees by answering these questions:

  • Why do I need to complete the CMS disclosure form?
  • Who do I include in the disclosure?
  • What are the acceptable ways to provide Medicare Part D creditable coverage letters to my employees and their spouses?
  • Can an employee enroll in the group health plan and also receive prescription drug coverage from Medicare?
  • Can my employee continue to contribute to the HSA after enrolling in Medicare?
  • Can I request that my over-65 employees enroll in Medicare instead of the group health plan?
