Time is moving quickly, and while compliance requirements are beginning to slow down – at least for now – there are still a few important items to address and preparations to make for what lies ahead.
Compliance Reminders
March 31: Forms 1094/1095 Filed with IRS
Applicable Large employers (ALEs) must file with the IRS the Forms 1095-C provided to employees along with a 1094-C transmittal form. Non-ALEs that sponsor a self-insured health plan must file with the IRS the Forms 1095-B provided to covered individuals along with a 1094-B transmittal form. The forms must be filed electronically.
Upcoming Compliance Reminders
Although June may feel far away, it will be here before we know it – and carriers will soon begin preparing for the annual Prescription Drug Data Collection (RxDC) filing. Because the filing deadline is June 1, the data gathering process starts well in advance.
Most medical carriers will require employers to complete a brief data form so they can finalize the RxDC submission on your behalf. These forms typically request plan-specific details needed for accurate reporting.
To ensure timely submission, please complete and return any required carrier forms as soon as you receive them. Carriers cannot finalize the filing without your organization’s direct response. This Acrisure Benefits Bulletin explains a lot. If you have any questions about the RxDC filing process or are unsure what steps to take, please reach out to your Account Management Team.
