DOL Compliance Overview (Sara Bradshaw)

Benefits compliance steadily changes with the introduction of new federal and state regulations. While this area of focus may only be one portion of your job responsibilities as an HR professional, it is crucial in ensuring fair and equal treatment of your workforce along with avoiding future litigation and poor publicity.  We’ll focus on key areas of benefits compliance in an effort to make the complex, simple.

Millennials, Technology and Future Outlook of Business Adaptation (Gail Steffen)

During the session, we will discuss the various generation groups, their characteristics and behavior patterns.  We will talk about the business workforce transition and what should be kept in mind.  We will also discuss the likes and preferences of all the generation groups and the best ways of getting each generation to have a meaningful career and fulfilling work environment using technology and space adaptation. 

Trends in the Employee Benefits (Nataliya Boychenko)

During the session, we will review trends in the employee benefits as employers are reacting to the Affordable Care Act legislation, increasing medical trends, new specialty medications, etc.  We will look at the strategies employers are taking to address the increasing cost and the development of the disease within their population.  We will discuss various upcoming funding trends as a way to control cost such as Employee Benefit Captives, minimum funding and the differences between self-funding strategies.  We will also look at Wellness trends and what actually is working for the employers as solutions to change behaviors within their populations.

Health Care Reform - Past Present and the Future (Nataliya Boychenko)

During the session, we will review the state of Health Care in the United States compared to those of other developed countries.  We will look at the history of the Private Payer system and contrast that to the Social Systems in other countries.  We will take a look at past, present and the future of the ACA and AHCA proposal.  We will discuss some of the issues employers are facing and also what some of the solutions that have been discussed or are being considered in legislation.
