Determining Compliance with the HIPAA Provisions in Part 7 of ERISA

Compliance with the Certificate of Creditable Coverage Provisions - Certificates Upon Request - Issuer Responsibility

If the plan is insured and there is an agreement between the plan and the issuer stating that the issuer is responsible for providing certificates of creditable coverage, does the issuer provide complete certificates?

• Yes
• No
• Not Applicable

Even if the plan is not responsible for issuing certificates of creditable coverage, the plan should monitor issuer compliance with the certification provisions.

If the plan is self-insured, or if there is no such agreement between the plan and the issuer, select "Not Applicable" above.
