In this episode, Suzanne Spradley and Chase Cannon look at three recent lawsuits, two of which are class action suits, against employers relating to COBRA notice failures. Suzanne describes the lawsuits, and explains that the failures related to the content of the notices themselves, rather than the more common issue of failure to send COBRA notices. Suzanne outlines the particular failures, and how the employer could’ve avoided the issue. The two discuss the importance of using model notices and things to consider when working with a third party vendor for COBRA administration
