What is Employee Benefits Liability Coverage?
Employee Benefits Liability insurance provides coverage to an employer for errors or omissions in the employer’s administration of its employee benefit program. For example, if a new employee requests to receive medical insurance through the employer and the employer failed to add the new employee to the plan. Then the health insurance company later denies coverage for the employee’s medical claim. The Employee Benefits Liability coverage would pay for the benefits that would have been payable under the health insurance plan but for the employer’s error.
This coverage applies to a wide range of employee benefits including health, life and disability insurance, retirement plans, and other benefits offered through plans administered by the employer.
