Have you updated your new employee waiting periods?

Health Care Waiting Periods

The beginning of 2015 is ripe with new health care reform requirements. While the majority of these, such as the implementation of the first phase of the Employer Mandate and the reporting requirements for health coverage, impose additional burdens on employers, the California-specific change actually relaxes an earlier requirement. The previously-in-effect cap of 60 calendar days on waiting limits for otherwise eligible employees to be allowed to join an employer-sponsored health plan will be gone on January 1, 2015. With this requirement removed, employers are permitted to follow the federal waiting period cap of no more than 90 calendar days.
