Katrina Compliance Kit
Plans that cover individuals affected by Hurricane Katrina must extend COBRA, HIPAA, and ERISA deadlines and time periods for those individuals, and plans directly affected by Katrina must provide extensions for all individuals covered by the plan.

EBIA’s Katrina Compliance Kit includes a Question & Answer page to help you determine whether your ERISA health and welfare plans must comply with the mandatory extensions, and if so, what steps are required. The kit also includes 22 sample documents that will help ERISA health and welfare plans communicate these extensions to the individuals they affect. On this page you can also access EBIA’s list of Katrina relief for employee benefit plans, with links to each item.
