Toronto Managing Partner Mitch Frazer spoke to Benefits Canada discussing human rights obligations and responsibilities of health benefits plan sponsors in 'The Plan Sponsor's Guide to drug formularies and prior authorizations.'
Mitch said, "Plan sponsors should be cautious when making/ignoring changes to their coverage or carriers, especially if they're aware that such changes may adversely affect an employee. In this case, a plan sponsor may owe a fiduciary obligation to protect that employee's interest."
