AI Summary
This bill amends the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) to clarify the treatment of certain association health plans (AHPs) as employers. It defines the criteria for a group or association of employers to be treated as an "employer" for the purposes of offering a group health plan, including requirements related to the size, structure, and governance of the group. The bill also establishes rules for how such AHPs can set premium rates and prohibits them from discriminating based on health status-related factors. Additionally, the bill specifies that these AHPs are still subject to the requirements of ERISA's Part 7, including the provisions of the Public Health Service Act incorporated through ERISA.
