You will leave this session with an understanding of how automatic enrollment works within retirement plans and healthcare plans. The Pension Protection Act of 2006 added special rules that allow IRC Section 401(k), 403(b) and 457(b) plans that add a qualified automatic contribution arrangement (“QACA”) to skirt ADP and ACP testing requirements that normally apply to these plans. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 added new rules that require certain employers to automatically enroll participants in their group healthcare plans. During this interactive session, we will discuss the following: • The benefits of adopting automatic contribution arrangements in retirement plans • The technical requirements of certain automatic contribution arrangements • The new automatic enrollment requirements under healthcare reform
