Description

Opinion OF THE COURT SCIRICA, Circuit Judge. This is an action seeking health insurance coverage under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA), 29
U.S.C. §§ 1001-1461 (1988). Nancy Smith has required skilled nursing care since suffering a cerebral hemorrhage
in August 1985. After her employer changed its group health policy to a self-insured plan, she enrolled in the new plan based
on the employer's erroneous representations that she would receive the same level of nursing care coverage. When the plan
stopped providing coverage, Nancy and Joseph Smith filed suit, alleging the employer's misrepresentations entitled them to
relief under ERISA. The district court granted summary judgment to defendants. We will affirm in part and reverse in part
and remand.
