2022 Limits for Benefits Planning

2022 Maximum Annual Out-Of-Pocket

Limit

The Affordable Care Act (ACA) provides that a non-grandfathered group health plan shall ensure that any annual cost-sharing imposed under the plan does not exceed the limitations provided for under sections 1302(c)(1) and (c)(2) of the Affordable Care Act. These are known as out-of-pocket maximum limits. The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has issued the 2022 out-of-pocket maximums for non-grandfathered group health plans, which are effective for plan years beginning on or after January 1, 2022. See https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2021-05-05/pdf/2021-09102.pdf.

CMS Online Disclosure for 7/1 and 8/1 Renewals

As you may recall, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services require all employers who offer prescription drug plans to

electronically file a confirmation with CMS verifying some general plan information and that the notices were sent to participants on or before October 15. For CMS creditable coverage reporting purposes, “plan year” means annual renewal period. Disclosure to CMS must be made within 60 days after the beginning of the “plan year” (annual renewal period). Therefore, 7/1/2021 renewals must file online on or before 8/29/2021 and 8/1/2021 renewals must file online on or before 9/29/2021. The website is as follows: http://www.cms.gov/Medicare/Prescription-Drug-Coverage/CreditableCoverage/CCDisclosureForm.html.

The CMS Guidance and Screen Prints for the electronic filing can be found to the left of the fields of entry. When reviewing the screen

print examples, please note that some sections of the Disclosure Form may not apply to your plan. Only fields relevant to your plan may appear on your screen. Also note that Total Number of Medicare Part D Eligible Individuals covered as of Plan Year Beginning Date can be acquired from your TPA.
