The ERISA Wrap SPD Video from Core Documents
Our video explains the ERISA, DOL, and ACA requirement for an ERISA Wrap SPD that comes in addition to the standard IRS plan document for employer-sponsored benefit plans. Core Documents provides everything an employer needs to meet this rule in our $99 Core SPD package.
Our ERISA Wrap SPD Plan Document Video Explains It All
Core Documents’ Group Insurance Wrap SPD document is available for a $99 one-time fee and is only updated if your plan’s employee benefit options change. This low cost Wrap SPD document is available for fully insured group health insurance plans.
Here are the ERISA Wrap SPD document requirements, as succinctly as possible:
- If you offer group health insurance you’re now required by ERISA law, enforced by the Department of Labor and now the Affordable Care Act, to distribute a Wrap SPD within 120 days of the Plan’s effective date.
- Failure to provide the Wrap SPD within 30 days of request triggers a $110 a day fine per participant.
- Not having a Wrap SPD can also trigger an audit by the Department of Labor.
- The insurance company’s Master Contract, Certificate of Coverage, or Summary of Benefits is not a Wrap SPD.
- This requirement applies to all employer sponsored group health insurance offerings, including a one-person plan.
Avoid the Affordable Care Act $110 per Day per Employee Fine with a Wrap SPD for Your Group Health Plan

The Wrap SPD is the main ERISA, DOL and ACA-mandated vehicle for communicating plan rights and obligations to employee participants and beneficiaries. As the name suggests, it is a summary of the material provisions of the plan documents and it should be understandable to the average participant of the plan.
