The Health Care Administrators Association (HCAA), a national membership-based trade organization, has fulfilled its core purpose by providing a collegial and inclusive environment through education and networking that focuses on the success of health benefit administrators. 

This course explores the differences between Voluntary Employee Benefits Associations (VEBAs) and Multiple Employer Welfare Arrangements (MEWAs).  It addresses how VEBAs and MEWAs are set up and the legalities involved when self funding a plan.  The course reviews trust requirements for these plans as well as eligibility and tax consequences.  Regulatory codes and required reporting are addressed on a federal and state level.  The course also provides discussion on the historical perspective on court decisions relating to self funding VEBAs and MEWAs.
