Plan Administration

Effective 1/1/22
This section of the Guide provides you with important information as required by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) about the JPMorgan Chase Health Care and Insurance Plans for Active Employees. While ERISA doesn't require JPMorgan Chase to provide you with benefits, by choosing to do so, ERISA mandates that JPMorgan Chase clearly communicate to you how the plans subject to the provisions of ERISA operate and what rights you have under the law regarding plan benefits. This section is part of the summary plan description of each of your JPMorgan Chase Health Care and Insurance Plans for Active Employees governed by ERISA. This section of the Guide also provides important information about certain benefits plans that are not governed by ERISA, such as the Group Personal Excess Liability Plan.
While the U.S. Fertility Benefits Program is a benefit offered under the Medical Plan, the section describing the Fertility Benefits Program includes the information that is included in this Plan Administration section for most other plans.
For most plans, the summary plan description and the plan document are the same document. For plans where this is not the case, copies of the plan documents are filed with the plan administrator and are available upon request. For plans that are funded through insurance, if there is a discrepancy between the insurance policy and the SPD, the insurance policy will govern.
