July 28, 2023 Hot Regs Summer
The heat wave hasn’t slowed us down at The Bar—this month, J.D. and Kerri discuss the new regulations hot off the presses from Treasury, Labor and HHS! How “short” and “limited” is short term limited duration insurance? How will the IRS tax payments from employer-paid fixed indemnity policies? And what’s up with the new Mental Health Parity rules? And in Last Call, J.D. and Kerri channel their inner Siskel & Ebert and tout the return of the summer blockbusters! DISCLAIMER: The Bar on Healthcare is an Aon podcast. Aon is not engaged

June 29, 2023 The Dobbs Decision One Year Later
It’s summertime at the Bar, and while normally that means drinks with little umbrellas in them, this summer it means looking back at a consequential Supreme Court case, and the effect it has had on group health plans at both a federal and state level over the past 12 months. J.D. and Kerri also revisit ERISA pre-emption, the Braidwood case and the end of the COVID-19 pandemic era emergencies. In Last Call, J.D. gives us his July 4th weekend streaming picks.
