ERISA Update: The Supreme Court Texas Decision and Other Recent Developments

This brief explores the U.S. Supreme Court’s June 2004 decision that ERISA preempts the Texas HMO liability law, as well as the decision’s effects on other state health plan liability laws. The brief also examines implications of ERISA preemption for state health insurance regulation, “pay or play” health coverage laws, and premium assistance programs.
