Following a presentation to the Association of Corporate Counsel (ACC) in Georgia, Nelson Mullins attorneys Ann Murray and Matt Zischke shared additional insights into the evolving effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on group health plans. Their article, “COVID-19’s Impact on Your Group Health Benefits – Are You Compliant?” details new COVID-19 coverage mandates and changes in how healthcare is provided as a result of the global health crisis.

Murray and Zischke write, “In preparing for their 2021 plan year, employees need to recognize that the COVID-19 pandemic may have forever changed what we view as ‘normal’ in many ways. Employers must adjust to make sure that they continue to provide employees with the affordable coverage and convenience they need. Remember that you are not alone; seek out advice from your advisors to help you implement and adjust to these no strategies.”
