LEGAL AND ETHICAL CONSIDERATIONS
Facing Insurance Industry Professionals and Their Clients

. . . when evaluating health benefit programs under the Accountable Care Act
This presentation will cover various elements associated with the Accountable Care Act (Act) and decisions made by employers regarding whether to utilize health benefit programs provided through state and national health insurance exchanges and issues associated with health care plan design contemplated by the Act.

Our speaker is Randal L. Schultz, a partner with the law firm of Lathrop & Gage LLP. Randal Schultz is the chair of the firm’s Healthcare Strategic Business Planning Practice group and also brings a wealth of experience related to Insurance/Employee Benefits Law.

Mr. Schultz will discuss legal and ethical implications of decisions to be faced by insurance professionals and their clients, various plan design strategies being considered by employers and their insurance professionals and the timing of decisions relating to those strategies.

Issues will range from whether employers should continue providing any health insurance benefits for their employees to what level of employer paid benefits can or should be provided. Discussion will also cover ethical issues with new healthcare delivery strategies that will directly impact price and the allocation of healthcare services.

The registration fee is $35 for members and $45 for nonmembers.

One hour of CE ethics credit has been approved for Kansas and Missouri. Only 2013 members are eligible to receive the CE credits.

There is a 48 hour cancellation policy.
