Health Benefit Plans

Health benefit plans are available in a variety of types, including medical reimbursement accounts or insurance. Benefits may or may not include the dependents of the employee. In addition, dental and vision coverage may be an option. While most commercial plans fall under the jurisdiction of ERISA (Employee Retirement Income Security Act), many government contractors operate under the controls of the SCA (Service Contract Act), Davis Bacon Act, Prevailing Wage Laws, or Living Wage Laws.

With the introduction of The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)--which provides strict guidelines for both private sector and government employers regarding group health benefit plans--came the additional task of enforcement. While HIPAA is designed to protect the rights of all employees in acquiring and maintaining health care coverage, its enactment can be costly for the employer.
