Join ECFC with us!
Our firm has been a proud member of the Employers Council on Flexible Compensation for many years. The association is based in Washington, DC and for 25 years had been advocating on behalf of flexible benefit plans and pre-tax benefits offering choice. We would like you to not only be aware of ECFC, but also join the organization that has been in the forefront of implementation and policy-making for consumer-driven health, cafeteria plans and all defined contribution plans.
Employers who wanted to promote 401(k) and cafeteria plans founded the non-profit trade group in 1981. They succeeded as most plan sponsors have moved from the defined benefit to the defined contribution model. In the next years, Congress will take up tax reform, and specifically, what employers should offer as benefits and for how much. You have an important stake in this debate.The Employers Council keeps us up-to-date with legislative bulletins as well as tremendous technical information on regulations and what is being implemented in the consumer-driven field. ECFC has been the leader in Washington on Health Savings Accounts, Health Reimbursement Arrangements as well as Flexible Spending Accounts. The politics of an ownership society, account-based savings and tax simplification will be crucial to us all.
As a client of Creative Benefits, Inc., you are eligible for a special sponsored membership for only $99 in 2006. You will receive full access to the ECFC website and technical information, as well as receive conference discounts and, of course, emailed bulletins. You must use our name to join at this very discounted rate. You may either fax in your membership application or apply online at www.ecfc.org - look in the membership area, click on the "Sponsored Membership Application." ECFC will confirm your sponsored membership.
We hope you will join ECFC with us!
