- NAHU submitted comments to federal agencies regarding the implementation of the
broker compensation disclosure law that passed at the end of 2020, where we
made requests and recommendations to ease any potential burden on agents,
brokers, and plan fiduciaries.
- NAHU also submitted comments regarding the implementation of the
surprise-billing ban that was passed in the same piece of legislation at the end
of 2020. In those comments we made several recommendations and requests so that
the Administration keeps associated administrative costs low and is as
consistent as possible in their rulemaking.
- Due to NAHU’s advocacy efforts,
Representatives Joe Courtney (D-CT), Glenn Thompson (R-PA), Suzan DelBene (D-WA)
and Ron Estes (R-KS) introduced H.R. 3650,
a bipartisan bill that would allow observation stays to be counted toward the
three-day mandatory inpatient stay for Medicare coverage of a skilled nursing
facility. NAHU is calling on all members to contact their federal legislators
and urge them to co-sponsor H.R. 3650 through our recently released Operation
Shout campaign.
- NAHU is conducting
a Member Engagement Survey. Every member will have the opportunity to
share his or her opinions about some of the key aspects of our work together. After
we have received the results, we will use them to start a dialogue about how we
can more effectively accomplish our mission and serve our members. The last day
to complete the survey is June 18.
- The IRS recently released additional guidance regarding the
COBRA subsidy provisions included in the recently-enacted American Rescue Plan
Act. Have some of your most questions been answered by this guidance? Find out
by watching this week’s Compliance Corner webinar here.
