WEBINAR: When the DOL Comes Calling: Are Your Health Plans Ready?
Please join us for an important ERISA fiduciary webinar.
March 25, 2026 | 10:30 AM Pacific Time
ERISA fiduciary responsibility is not symbolic — it carries potential personal liability, and employer-sponsored health plans are facing increasing scrutiny from both the Department of Labor and the plaintiffs’ bar. Benefit committee members, executives, and others exercising discretionary authority over plan decisions may be held individually accountable for failures in oversight, vendor management, fee reasonableness, and compliance governance.
John Schembari, Partner at Kutak Rock LLP, will lead an executive-level discussion on where health plan fiduciaries face exposure, how enforcement and litigation trends are developing, and what leadership teams should be doing now to strengthen governance and reduce risk.
Webinar Objectives:
- Clarify Fiduciary Status and Personal Exposure
- Assess Enforcement and Litigation Risk
- Strengthen Governance and Oversight Practices
