Gym memberships. Fitness equipment. Red light devices. Supplements. Yoga. Cold plunge tubs. Saunas. What do these all have in common? They are sold for general health and well-being. This means, FSAs/HRAs/HSAs can only be used to pay for them under select circumstances, as these accounts can only be used to pay for medical expenses. Read our latest blog, where we untangle the confusion surrounding wellness expenses and pre-tax benefit accounts: https://hubs.la/Q02JzSB80

COBRA requires employers to provide an initial notice to each covered employee and spouse within 90 days of coverage starting. There are also times when employees or their spouses should receive an additional initial notice even if they received one when they first enrolled in coverage. Failure to provide an initial notice can be costly. Are you confident that all of your employees received the required initial notice? Learn more about EBC’s COBRA administration and how a blanket notification can ensure every eligible individual received an initial notice and provide employers with documentation verifying the notice went out and when: https://hubs.la/Q02K4NN70
