What Does ERISA Do for Employees?
Because of the provisions set forth since ERISA was enacted in 1974, employees are more knowledgeable regarding how they file a claim for benefits. They also know of any changes that may have been made to their plans and holds employers accountable for notifying the covered employees what standards must be met and how long they have to file a claim. This often helps with some of the main complexities involved in filing a claim. Many claims are denied because the claimant doesn’t meet the standards or file in time, simply because they don’t know the process. ERISA makes it easier on them to understand everything. ERISA also provides employees with specific protections regarding any wrongdoing that insurance companies, plan administrators, and other authorities may attempt. Under ERISA, the fiduciary is required to operate in a manner that helps in the best interests of claimants.How Our Lawyers Can Help
