On May 12, 2025, Hawaii’s Department of Labor and Industrial Relations (DLIR) issued an updated list of approved healthcare plans under the state’s Prepaid Health Care Act (PHCA). As background, Hawaii’s PHCA requires employers to provide specific preapproved group medical coverage to certain employees and restricts the cost-sharing contribution amounts employees can be charged for coverage.
Employers should be aware of this release. For further information regarding the state’s employee benefits, employers can also ask their broker or consultant for a copy of the NFP publication Hawaii: Employee Benefit Considerations.
