Many have talked about the options for posting compliance documents online. It is interesting to note that posting documents on a company’s intranet is not enough. Especially in light of the new court decision (Thomas v. CIGNA Group Insurance, E.D.N.Y. (2013)), the topic is even more important. Historically, companies have mailed out hard copies of their compliance packets, Summary Plan Descriptions (SPDs), Summary of Benefits and Coverage (SBC), and Summary of Material Modifications (SMM). If this packet contains the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) State Exchange notification, it also needs to go to new hires within 14 days.
