HomeMy WebLinkAboutContract 45285 (2)L( ' 'l f uZ Y ' 1 comp/Am-cal itct .eS Plan Sponsor Certification of Grand fathered Status The undersigned plan sponsor believes that each plan or coverage listed below is a "grandfathered health plan" under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. As permitted by the act, a grandfathered health plan can preserve certain health coverage that was in effect when that law was enacted on March 23, 2010. Being a grandfathered health plan means that your plan may, but is not required to, include certain provisions of the act that apply to other plans, for example, the requirement for the provision of preventative health services without any cost sharing. However, grandfathered health plans must comply with certain other provisions within the act, for example the elimination of lifetime limits on benefits. In addition, the undersignedplan sponsor certifies that it has not defeated grandfathered status for any of the plans listed below by: Decreasing by more than 5 percentage points* its employer contribution for coverage or any tier of coverage for any class of similarly situated individuals cumulatively since March 23, 2010; Restructuring its business to avoid a loss of grandfathered status; NI Transferring employees into the plan without a bona fide employment based reason (changing the terms or cost of coverage is not a bona fide reason); and Plan Sponsor is not aware of any other plan changes that would cause a loss of grandfathered status.
