Abstract:
26 CFR 54.9815-2714T requires plans and issuers to provide a notice of enrollment opportunity to individuals whose coverage ended, or who were denied coverage (or not eligible for coverage) under a group health plan or group health insurance coverage because, under the terms of the plan or coverage, the availability of dependent coverage of children ended before the attainment of age 26.
Emergency Justfication:
These regulations have been developed jointly by IRS/Treasury, the U.S. Department of Labor, and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. All three regulations will be published jointly behind a single preamble. The White House has been involved in coordinating the publication of these regulations. They would like to publish these regulations in the next week (by 7 May 2010). DOL and HHS will be delivering the regulations to OMB for review on Monday 3 May, and we would like to deliver this PRA submission as soon as possible, by Monday 3 May COB if possible. It is anticipated that OMB will clear the regulations and this PRA submission by Wednesday 5 May.
