## (USA) Setting Up COBRA

This chapter provides an overview of Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (COBRA) setup, lists prerequisites, and discusses how to:

- Activate automated COBRA administration.

- Use COBRA workflow.

- Complete the Post-Install Conversion.

- Set up COBRA general constants.

- Set up COBRA qualifying event constants.

- Set up COBRA qualifying event rules.

- Set up COBRA plan premium amounts.

### Understanding COBRA Setup

Before you can use any features of the COBRA administration system, you must verify that settings in the Plan Master program (P08320) are activated for COBRA. On the Plan Master form, verify that the COBRA Plan option is selected for the plans that are available for COBRA coverage. Then, on the U.S. Legislative/Regulatory form, verify that the Valid for Cobra option is selected for all DBAs that are used for COBRA administration. Verify that the Description 02 column in user-defined code (UDC) 06/PF contains the number of pay periods for each pay frequency. A blank value in this column produces incorrect COBRA premium amounts.

When setting up COBRA, you need to define critical information that the system uses for processing:

- COBRA general constants

- COBRA qualifying event constants

- COBRA qualifying event rules

COBRA legislation allows state, county, and local (city) tax authorities to overrule federal provisions regarding COBRA benefits, provided that the changes represent an increase in the level of benefits that is offered. The system uses residential tax area information as the basis for benefits. The residential tax area information code is a code that identifies a geographical location and the tax authorities for the employee's residence. This code is synonymous with GeoCode.

A GeoCode is a nine-digit code that represents a taxing jurisdiction. All GeoCodes are defined and maintained by Vertex. Each GeoCode has the following format:

XXYYYZZZZ

where

XX equals state

YYY equals county

ZZZZ equals city

When choosing the residential tax area information to use as the basis of calculation for benefits, the system searches first for a match on the city, county, and state. If it finds such a match, the system ends the search and uses the tax information that is associated with the designated city as the basis of calculation for benefits. If it does not find a match, the system then searches for a match on just the county and state, and so on.

After the system establishes a match within the hierarchy of the residential tax area, it begins another search to determine whether the company has increased the level of benefits that are offered at the company level or the home business unit. The system searches first for a match on both the company and home business unit. If it finds a match, the system uses the home business unit information to establish the level of benefits. If it does not find a match, the system searches for information at the company level only. The system uses the highest level of benefits that were recorded by searching first through the qualifying event constants and then through the general constants information as a basis of calculation.

For current legislative information regarding COBRA administration, contact the regional or district office of the Pension and Welfare Benefits Administration for the U.S. Department of Labor.

### Activating Automated COBRA Administration

This section provides an overview of automated COBRA administration, lists a prerequisite, and discusses how to activate automated COBRA administration.

#### Understanding Automated COBRA Administration

Before you use the COBRA features, you activate the Use Automated COBRA Administration function. When this function is activated, the system uses information from updated fields in the Employee Master Information table (F060116) table to automate hidden functions for COBRA administration.

When the Automated COBRA Administration function is activated and changes are made to any of the employee master programs, the system performs a test to determine whether the employee or the employee's dependents qualify for COBRA. When an individual qualifies for COBRA, the system creates records in the COBRA Qualified Beneficiary File table (F08910) and COBRA Coverage table (F08920). When a subsequent qualifying event is triggered, the system creates records in the COBRA Subsequent Qualified Event Info. table (F089101).

#### Prerequisite

Before you complete the tasks in this section, you must verify that the system options are set up to track employee history.

See Setting Up System Options.

#### Forms Used to Activate Automated COBRA Administration

Form Name | FormID | Navigation | Usage
System Control - Revisions | W05004B | Compensation Mgmt System Setup (G08CM14), HRM Common Settings On the Work With HRM Common Display Settings form, click Add. On the System Control - Revisions form, enter UCR in the Data Item field and select the Yes option to use automated COBRA administration, and click OK. | Activate automated COBRA administration.

### Using COBRA Workflow

This section provides an overview of COBRA workflow.

When you activate automated COBRA administration, you initiate a workflow process that prompts the administrator to send the COBRA letter. The workflow process starts when you enter a qualifying event or subsequent qualifying event and the system updates the Employee Master Information table (F060116) and Employee Master Additional Information File table (F060120). These tables have table triggers that initiate the workflow process.

The workflow process first searches the COBRA Qualified Beneficiary File table (F08910) and the COBRA Subsequent Qualified Event Info. table (F089101) for a date in the Date Printed field. If the COBRA letter has not been printed, the system sends a workflow message to the COBRA administrator's work center in the Priority Mail queue.

After the COBRA notification message has been sent to the administrator, the workflow process is idle for one day. When the process resumes, the system again searches the tables for a date in the Date Printed field. If the COBRA letter has not yet been printed, the system generates another workflow message and sends it to the administrator's supervisor, and the workflow process is idle for another day. The system repeats this process daily and continues to send notifications to the next highest supervisor until either the COBRA letter is printed or there are no more supervisors.

### Setting Up COBRA Qualifying Event Constants

This section provides an overview of COBRA qualifying event constants, lists a prerequisite, and discusses how to set up COBRA Qualifying Event Constants.

#### Understanding COBRA Qualifying Event Constants

You set up COBRA qualifying event constants to supply default information to fields that are related to COBRA compliance at the company level. You use the COBRA qualifying event constants to maintain qualifying event constant information for employees and beneficiaries who are enrolled in COBRA.

#### Prerequisite

Before you complete the tasks in this section, you must verify that you have set up a qualifying event constant for dependent children in the Qualifying Event Constants program (P08991). The constant that you set up must define coverage periods, and you should select the Send COBRA letter to Employee option.

#### Form Used to Set Up COBRA Qualifying Event Constants

### Setting Up COBRA Qualifying Event Rules

This section provides an overview of COBRA qualifying event rules and discusses how to set up COBRA qualifying event rules.

#### Understanding COBRA Qualifying Event Rules

After you have set up constants, you set up COBRA qualifying event rules to link changes within an employee's personal data to COBRA qualifying events. The system reads the qualifying event rules to determine whether any changes in the employee record constitute a COBRA qualifying event. You need to set up qualifying event rules when you use automated COBRA administration. The notifications for these COBRA qualifying events can be automated by setting up qualifying event rules:

- Death

- Divorce or legal separation

- Termination of employment

- Work hour reduction

When you make changes to related fields in the Employee Master Information table (F060116) and you have set up qualifying event rules, the system updates these tables:

- F08910

- F08920

- F089101

To track employee eligibility for Medicare, set up an Employee Master category code to identify Medicare employees. Then, set up an event rule for that category code that triggers a qualified event if the employee begins receiving Medicare. When setting up the event constant for Medicare, clear the Send COBRA Letter To Employee option.

#### Form Used to Set Up COBRA Qualifying Event Rules

Form Name | FormID | Navigation | Usage
COBRA Qualifying Event Rules Revisions | W08992C | COBRA Setup (G05BCOB1), Qualifying Event Rules On the Work With COBRA Qualifying Event Rules form, click Add. | Set up COBRA qualifying event rules.

#### Setting Up COBRA Qualifying Event Rules

Access the COBRA Qualifying Event Rules Revisions form.

To set up COBRA qualifying event rules:

1. Complete these required fields:

   - Qualifying Event

   - Type Of Information

   - Company

   - Effective From

2. Complete these fields, as desired:

   - Business Unit

   - Tax Area (Res.) (tax area [residential])

   - Effective Thru

3. To add or edit the qualifying event rule that is associated with a qualifying event, complete these fields, as necessary, and then click OK:

   - Line Number

   - And /Or

   - Based On Data Item

   - Evaluation Operator

   - Value

4. Repeat steps 1 through 3 for each qualifying event code.

   Note. For each qualifying event code except divorce, complete the Type Of Information field with an E. The E specifies information that the system uses to create a rule that tests data item columns in the Employee Master Information table (F060116). For divorce, complete the Type Of Information field with a value of O. The O specifies information that the system uses to create a rule that tests data item columns in the Employee Master Additional Information File table (F060120). Specifically, in the event of divorce, the system needs marital status information, which is stored in the F060120 table.
   There is not a value for divorce in UDC 06/MS. You can set up a new UDC value for divorce in this table or attach a new UDC table for marital status (data item MSA).

   Type Of Information | Select a UDC 08/TI that specifies the table and the data item columns to create the rule. Values are: Employee Master Information: This code creates a rule based on data item columns in the F060116 table. Employee Master Additional Inf: This code creates a rule based on data item columns in the F060120 table.
   Line Number | Enter a line number to move rapidly through a long list of journal entries. The system shifts the information on that line to the top of the display.
   And/Or | Enter a code to designate whether the test parameters or criteria are based on an AND condition or an OR condition.
   Based On Data Item | Enter a code that specifies the data item on which the rule is based.
   Evaluation Operator | Enter a boolean logic operator that defines the conditional statement. Select a commonly used operator, such as = (equal to), when defining conditions.
   Value | Enter a number against which the Based On item is compared.

### Setting Up COBRA Plan Premium Amounts

This section provides an overview of COBRA plan premium amount calculations, lists a prerequisite, and discusses how to set up COBRA plan premium amounts for unions.

#### Understanding COBRA Plan Premium Amount Calculations

Before you can enroll employees in COBRA, you must set up the benefit plans that the company offers and assign the DBAs that integrate the benefit plan with JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Payroll. You can set up COBRA plan premium amounts for benefit plans without options, benefit plans with options, or unions.

Calculating COBRA Plan Premium Amounts for Benefit Plans without Options

Set up COBRA plan premium amounts in the Plan Master program (P08320). The system uses the premium amounts that you set up on the Calc./Eligibility tab of the Plan Master form to calculate the COBRA plan premium that appears in the Coverage Review program (P08922) and the COBRA Coverage Selection program (P08921). The system calculates COBRA plan premiums for benefit plans without options in one of these three ways:

1. If a DBA appears in the EE Payroll Deduction (employee payroll deduction ) field, place the cursor in this field and select Plan Rates from the Form menu.

   On the Plan Master Rates Window form, complete the Type field with a C (COBRA), and then complete the Amount and Date fields in the detail area.

   Important! The amount field represents the COBRA rate for the selected plan multiplied by the pay frequency for the selected individual. It also includes the administration fee.
   When creating COBRA coverage records, if the system finds a COBRA plan premium amount for the EE Payroll Deduction field, it includes that amount, and only that amount, in the calculation. If other COBRA amounts are set up for the remaining DBA fields on the Plan Master form, the system omits these amounts.

2. If the system does not find a COBRA amount for the EE Payroll Deduction field as described previously, the system searches for COBRA amounts on the other DBAs.

   You can also set up COBRA amounts for the ER Paid Benefit (employer paid benefit), EE Flex Cost, and ER Flex Credits fields. Set up COBRA amounts for these fields in the same manner that you set up a COBRA amount for the EE Payroll Deduction field.

   Note. The COBRA amounts for the ER Paid Benefit, EE Flex Cost, and EE Flex Credits fields are summed. If no COBRA amount has been set up for a particular field, the system does not use that field in the calculation.

3. If no valid COBRA amounts exist for the EE Payroll Deduction, ER Paid Benefit, EE Flex Cost, and ER Flex Credits fields, the system sums the regular benefit DBA calculations.

Calculating COBRA Plan Premium Amounts for Benefit Plans with Options

The calculations for benefit plans with options are similar to the calculations for benefit plans without options. However, a plan with options also uses the option rule fields in the Plan Master Options program (P083202). COBRA plan premiums for benefit plans with options are calculated in one of these three ways:

1. If a DBA appears in the EE Payroll Deduction field on the Plan Master form, or a DBA appears in the Payroll Ded DBA field on the Plan Master Options form, you can place the cursor in the field and select Plan Rates from the Row menu.

   On the Plan Master Rates Window form, complete the Type field with a C (COBRA), and then complete the Amount and Date fields in the detail area. The system calculates the COBRA plan premium amount based on the value in the Payroll Ded - Option Rule (payroll deduction - option rule) field and whether the COBRA amount is set up.

   For example, if the option rule is 1, the system searches for a COBRA amount that is set up for the plan in the EE Payroll Deduction field. If the option rule is 3, the system searches for a COBRA amount that is set up for the option in the Payroll Ded DBA (payroll deduction DBA) field. If the option rule is 2, the systems looks for a COBRA amount for either field. If a COBRA amount is found, the system sums up the amounts for the DBA fields.

   Note. If the option rule is 2, and a COBRA amount is set up for only one of the DBAs, the system adds that COBRA amount to the regular benefit DBA calculations of the other DBA.

2. If the system does not find a COBRA amount for the EE Payroll Deduction field or the Payroll Ded DBA field as described previously, the system searches for COBRA amounts on the other DBAs.

   Note. Option rules are important for calculating the COBRA amount. Based on the option rules and the corresponding DBA fields, valid COBRA amounts are summed. If no COBRA amount is found for a particular field and a particular option rule, the system does not use the field in the calculation.

3. If no COBRA amounts are found for any of the DBA fields, the system sums the regular benefit DBA calculation for each set of DBAs.

Example: COBRA Premium Calculation

COBRA premium calculations use the formula: COBRA amount × pay frequency ÷ 12 + administrative fee.

For example, when an employee is paid weekly and has a COBRA amount of 60.00 USD and a 2 percent administrative fee, calculate the monthly premium as follows:

60.00 USD (United States Dollar) × 52 weeks = 3120.00 USD

3120 USD ÷ 12 = 260.00 USD (monthly amount)

260.00 USD × .02 = 5.20 USD (administration fee)

260.00 USD + 5.20 = 265.20 USD (COBRA premium due)

The premium amount that appears on the COBRA Coverage Revisions form and the elected total amount that appears on the COBRA Coverage Selection form are both monthly premium amounts. The Amount or Rate field on the Plan Master Rates Window form displays a pay period amount.

#### Prerequisite
