Medicare notice requirements
All sponsors of group health plans, including private employers, unions, government entities and other group health plan sponsors, must comply with this notice requirement. Traditional health plans, including HMOs and PPOs, providing prescription drug coverage are subject to the notice requirements. However, flexible spending accounts, health savings accounts and Archer Medical Savings Accounts are not taken into account in determining whether prescription drug coverage is creditable and employers do not have to send the Medicare Part D notice for these types of plans.
