Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c34258) has announced the addition of Health Care Benefits Law to their offering.
Health Care Benefits Law explains how current laws affect the design and day-to-day administration of health care plans. It also helps you identify -and deal with-hidden areas of liability. You'll find detailed coverage of such topics as: ERISA reporting and disclosure requirements; negotiating ASO ("Administrative-Services-Only") contracts; tax treatment of health benefits; auditing utilization review; ERISA fiduciary requirements; managed care liability; COBRA (including all the sample notices and forms that an employer needs to comply effectively!); Medicare secondary payer issues; The Americans with Disabilities Act; The Health Maintenance Organization Act; HIPAA and the Family and Medical Leave Act; and more.
