SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Health Insurance Portability and 

Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), 

codified as part 7 of title I of the 

Employee Retirement Security Act of 

1974 (ERISA), was enacted to improve 

the portability and continuity of health 

care coverage for participants and 

beneficiaries of group health plans. 

HIPAA also added section 101(g) to 

ERISA, providing the Secretary of Labor 

with authority to require, by regulation, 

multiple employer welfare arrangements 

(MEWAs) as defined in section 3(40) of 

ERISA, that offer or provide coverage for 

medical benefits, but which are not 

group health plans (non-plan MEWAs), 

to report annually for the purpose of 

determining compliance with part 7 

requirements. While the statutory 

authority was directed at non-plan 

MEWAs, based on the authority in 

ERISA sections 101(g), 505, and 734, 

DOL in 2003 promulgated a regulation 

at 29 CFR 2520.101–2 that required the 

administrators of both plan MEWAs and 

non-plan MEWAs that offer or provide 

coverage for medical benefits to file the 

Form M–1 on an annual basis. For 

additional substantive information
