In recognition of her sustained outstanding performance in the law profession, Medill was the first fellow from Nebraska to be inducted during the counsel's 15th annual dinner and ceremony in October in Washington, D.C.
The ACEBC was established in 2000 to recognize the nation’s leading experts in the field of employee benefits law. Election as a fellow is the highest form of professional recognition in the employee benefits law field. Selection is based on proof of a sustained commitment to the development and pursuit of public awareness and understanding of the law of employee benefits through such activities as writing, speaking, participating in public policy analysis, public education or public service for at least twenty years.

Professor Medill also published the fourth edition of her employee benefits casebook. Professor Medill’s book, which has been adopted by over 40 American law schools, is the only legal textbook that contains comprehensive coverage of both health care and retirement plans established by private employers for their workers. The book is unique in its extensive coverage of the implementation of the Affordable Care Act and its impact on employer-sponsored health care plans. Professor Medill uses her book each spring to teach her Employee Benefits Law course at the College of Law.
