MetLife -Updated COVID-19 Resources

Good Morning, We wrote to you on Monday with some preliminary intel on pending legislation that would have an impact to our clients, brokers and their employee benefit programs. This Federal legislation has now been signed into law. We want to share the updated impacts of this legislation that was passed last night, since these changes may impact you directly or indirectly. MetLife’s interpretation and best practices for our clients with 500 lives and above, who are not covered by the leave provisions of the new legislation, and below 500 lives, who are directly covered by the new legislation is available at: https://www.metlife.com/COVID-19_US_Customer/ . In addition to updates on the legislation, MetLife has also provided guidance on practices we are implementing to handle medical verification related to COVID-19 claims. Please be sure to review these practices. As a reminder, you can also access our Frequently Asked Questions and additional information about our response to COVID-19 on our website, which is being updated daily as this situation evolves. As always, we are here for you and for your workforce. If you have any questions or need any help, please don’t hesitate to contact us. Sincerely, MetLife
