Compliance Updates with In-Depth Analysis

"SPBA is the single place where I get the most credible compliance updates. That's super critical in my role...participating with them gives you direct access to some agencies and departments and having that resource is invaluable."

Members-Only Website

To preserve the value of membership, SPBA offers a separate, members-only website that is filled with the latest news and historical depth on issues TPAs need to navigate in the current environment. Members tell us that having access to all of this information at their fingertips keeps them up-to-date and significantly lightens the burden of managing compliance. The website includes a full library of articles, recorded webinars, materials and official source documents on all major topics that affect the self-funded industry. In organizing for easy use, it covers broad topics like health reform and breaks down the finer details – issues like Employer Shared Responsibility, ACA Employer/Plan Reporting, Wellness, and many, many more.  

What kinds of resources will you find? Take a look at a sampling:

  • SPBA explanatory articles
  • Recorded webinars
  • Original source documents
  • Compliance templates

  • Issue-specific manuals on topics like Pay or Play
