The Form M-1 is an annual report that must be filed by Multiple Employer Welfare
Arrangements (MEWAs). In general, MEWAs are arrangements that offer health and
other benefits to the employees of two or more different employers. MEWAs do
not include plans determined by the Secretary of Labor to be collectively
bargained. Plans claiming this exception without a determination from the Labor
Department are considered Entities Claiming Exception (ECEs) and must file for
three years following an origination event (which is defined in regulations and
in the instructions to the Form M-1). If you have questions about using or
completing the Form M-1, please contact the Form M-1 Help Desk at 202-693-8360.
