Summary of differences between federal and state regulations
Employee benefits are generally covered under the federal jurisdiction of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA).
Federal ERISA plans generally do not have to comply with state laws. ERISA rules preempt or block state laws that relate to ERISA plans. State insurance laws, however, do apply. Mississippi has no laws governing group life insurance, but it does have laws governing group legal expense insurance.
Mississippi laws include the following provisions:
- Subscription contracts cannot be written for a period longer than three years. §83-49-13
- There is a 20-day grace period. §83-49-13
- The plan may provide only a telephone service for advice or consultation. §83-49-13
