A Multiple Employer Welfare Arrangement (MEWA) is a plan or arrangement which is established or maintained for the purpose of offering or providing coverage for health care services to employees of two or more employers or to their beneficiaries. A MEWA that does not have all of its covered benefits insured on a direct basis shall not operate in Virginia without becoming licensed as an insurance company, health maintenance organization, health services plan, or a dental or optometric services plan. Although a MEWA may have all of its covered benefits fully insured, it is neither licensed nor regulated by the Virginia Bureau of Insurance.
