Annual Private Plan Attestation (APPA) Employer Task

Admin Account Contact Relationship (ACR) will encounter the Annual Private Plan Attestation (APPA) Employer Task when they log in to the portal. They must complete it before accessing their dashboard. 

  • The attestation process includes validating the Private Plan Contact Information and Plan Requirements. Information from the previous reporting is listed with fields that can be verified or edited. 
  • Admins checks pre-filled contact info for both the user and the account. Users can confirm the information as current without entering new data. They can't edit the email address, which stays non-editable. 
     

After verifying and attesting, users confirm completion by checking a box and submitting. This action leads to a Success page. 

In cases where an external user has an ACR to one employer account using a DOI-approved private plan, and another using a self-insured private plan, the user will complete the APPA tasks for both in a single component. The attestation language for each will be presented in the single component.
