Wellness Rules Overview
Thu, Nov 18, 2021 2:00 PM – 3:00 PM CST
Presented by Bob Radecki, Principal, Benefit Comply, LLC and TBD

This webinar will review these regulations along with the existing HIPAA wellness rules, and will help employers think about how to ensure their wellness plans are structured in a compliant manner.
