WHY EB COMPLIANCE STRATEGIES IS DIFFERENT AND BETTER?
EB Compliance Strategies is different and better than other providers of ERISA compliance services.
Most employers receive ERISA services from their insurance broker. Insurance brokers offer compliance checklists and
sample participants. Some larger brokers even offer legal support from their clients. ERISA attorneys are great resource
for most employers, except their fees can be substantial.
EB Compliance Strategies offers a better option. We have a deep analytical consulting approach that goes way beyond the
typical broker checklist. Our analysis and recommendations will be reviewed with you and your benefits team. Finally, we
will work with your current ERISA attorney to review and finalize our recommendations.
The benefits of this approach is that EB Compliance Strategies will save you a lot of money by do most of the work of
gathering, analyzing, and making recommendation for your compliance program instead of paying an ERISA attorney.
ERISA attorney’s can charge anywhere between $300 to $550 an hour to do the same type of work. We still want your
ERISA attorney to provide input to the recommendations, finalize the document work, and to provide client-attorney
protections.
Unlike a brokerage firm, EB Compliance Strategies specializes in compliance and vendor management. Secondly, our
analytical review and recommendation are very extensive versus a recommendation. Also, most brokerage firms offer a
disclaimer that states all of their recommendations are not meant to be legal advice and they will not take responsible for
errant recommendations.

[H1] Plan Document Service to Protect Your Company
Keeping your documents updated and properly filed is very important for any company looking to maintain compliance
with current employee benefit regulations. EB Compliance Strategies wants to help you ensure that you remain completely
compliant by providing you with our helpful plan document service. This helps you avoid the potential penalties and fines
that you might experience if you do not have your documents filled out and filed correctly.
Not staying compliant with regulations is a quick way to end up shuttering your business. With the help of our compliance
strategy (link to hp) team, you are able to successfully avoid the potential issues that come with failing compliancy audits.
Let us help you keep your business out of federal trouble.
The Failure to Have a Written Plan Document & SPD
What happens if you do not have a written plan document or fail to provide a SPD during an audit? The result could be a
charge of $110.00 per day to your business. Not only that, but criminal penalties may be imposed on any individual or
entity. The potential penalty could be up to 10 years of imprisonment and/or a monetary fine of $100,000 for an entity.
This fine could be increased up to $500,000. This is simply something that businesses like yours cannot afford.
Failure to have proper plan documents negatively impacts employer compliance with federal regulations. This increases
your risk and exposure for legal action. The solution for staying in compliancy is to work with our consulting firm’s written
plan document service.
How Our Plan Document Service Helps
There are a number of different ways that our team can help you properly create and file your plan documents. The first
step is to utilize our plan document development service. This is when we develop the initial plan documents and SPD for
legal review. It includes support adoption agreements, amendments, and administrative forms.
The next step is the finalization of the plan document or plan documents and the preparation for participant distribution
and recordkeeping. This step allows us to easily help you ensure that everyone gets the copies required of your plan

document as well as that the files you need saved are properly stored. You can also work with us to have your plan

Determining Applicable Large Employer Status
One of the ways our team is ready to help your business is by determining your employer and controlled group status. This
begins by us identifying your employees and determining the method for calculating your hours of service. This allows us to
figure out how many full-time and how many part-time equivalent employees you have on your payroll in regards to
healthcare reform regulations. We then document your ALE status and help you figure out the adequate healthcare
coverage you need to provide to avoid “Pay or Play” penalties under the Affordable Care Act.
The consultants at our firm are also skilled at determining if the coverage you offer is the Minimum Essential Coverage
(MEC), which provides the Minimum Value (MV) while remaining affordable at 9.5% for single-only coverage. We then test
and use the best Safe Harbor provision for our calculation, including W-2 forms, rate of pay, and the federal poverty line.
Some of the other healthcare reform consulting services we offer include:

Determining Initial Measurement & Standard Measurement Periods

Categorizing Employees as an Ongoing or New Employee

Applying Look-Back Method to Ongoing & New Employees

Evaluating “Pay or Play” Penalties, No Coverage Penalties, & Unaffordable/Inadequate Coverage Penalties

NEW CONTENT FOR CAROL AND SCOTT:
Carol Baier
As a principal with EB Compliance Strategies Carol Baier brings with her over 30 years of
comprehensive experience in every aspect of health, welfare, and retirement plans. Carol
has a deep and varied employee benefits background with experience managing internal
HR and benefits departments, as well as benefit vendors, from a large employer

employer. Her reputation in the employee benefits community is second to none.
Most recently, Carol was the Benefits and Vendor Relations Manager for Meijer, Inc., of
Grand Rapids, Michigan. As one of the largest privately held companies in America,
Meijer has over 70,000 employees throughout the United States. Carol managed the
Meijer employee vendor relationships including creating and analyzing responses for
Request for Proposals, negotiating contracts and performance guarantees, as well as
monitoring vendor performance. When Meijer worked to acquire an existing dairy and
then built a second for the capacity to produce their entire milk supply, Carol directed the
internal human resources and payroll teams for the project while managing the impact of
Health Care reform on existing vendors and internal systems for Meijer at large.
Carol has also served as the Global Benefits Manager for Haworth of Holland, Michigan
and as Benefits Manager for both Amway of Grand Rapids, Michigan and First of America
of Kalamazoo, Michigan.
Scott Crumback
Scott Crumback is President and Founder of EB Compliance Strategies. He is an expert in ERISA
Welfare Benefit Plan compliance with over 34 years of experience managing all levels of
outsourced employee benefits services for his employer clients. A driven entrepreneur with
expertise in HIPAA and Affordable Care Act compliance requirements, Scott is known for
delivering unparalleled excellence in client-focused compliance and benefits administration
consulting.
After establishing himself in the industry, Scott Crumback served for 10 years as Vice President of
Flex Administrators, Inc., a third-party benefits administrator service specializing in flexible
spending accounts management. In 1997 he founded Corporate Benefit Strategies, a flexible benefit
services consulting firm. By 2012, Scott noticed both an increasing demand for IRS and Department
of Labor compliance support and an inadequate supply of client resources. He had grown his
business to include over 350 clients with $3 million in annual revenue and began navigating a
merger between CBS, and bswift LLC, another company that catered to small and high-profile
clientele with a reputation for delivering outstanding customer service, to meet this need. As a
result, EB Compliance Strategies was formed—an organization committed to providing detailed and
long-term comprehensive benefits compliance solutions
EB Compliance Strategies makes the most of Scott and his team’s combined understanding of
benefits compliance, commitment to customer assurance, and extensive business acumen, to
leverage regulatory knowledge and shrewd insight to anticipate the specific needs of your business.
In an industry where audits can feel like an ever-looming threat, EB Compliance Strategies has a
proven track record for managing all compliance needs and setting the minds of its clients at ease.
This team is as adept at spotting hidden compliance errors as it is at creating easy-to-follow action
plans to get a company into compliance quickly. Should an audit ever arise, the streamlined
recordkeeping processes developed and put in place by EBCS will ensure easy recall, so that a
potential nightmare will be nothing more than a painless process.
