Abstract:
Section 156.220 of Title 45 of the Code of Federal Regulations establishes new standards for qualified health plan (QHP) issuers to submit specific information related to transparency in coverage. QHPs are required to post and make are established for the submission of specific information data related to transparency in coverage available to the public in plain language and submit this data to the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the Exchange, and the State insurance commissioner and for posting this information to make it available to the public in plain language. Section 2715A of the Public Health Service Act as added by the ACA largely extends the transparency provisions set forth in section 1311(e)(3) to non-grandfathered group health plans and health insurance issuers offering group and individual health insurance coverage.
