Health care reform is not the only thing shaking up the health systems industry. This sector has seen a surge in merger and acquisition (M&A) activity. The successful integration of two organizations into a combined entity entails substantial effort for merged health care organizations. One question arising from these M&A deals involves determining the most appropriate type of defined contribution (DC) retirement plan for the new organization and its employees
Health care organizations sponsor roughly 21% of the 403(b) industry. The recent growth in M&A activity among health systems could present unique issues to these enterprises relative to other 403(b)-eligible organizations.
This paper provides a brief overview of defined contribution (DC) plan considerations facing health care organizations that engage in M&A activity. We also include a high-level comparison of 401(k) and 403(b) plans, key issues with plan mergers, the potential loss of church plan status, the importance of DC retirement plan governance, and regulatory changes.
