Title: ●Status as a Grandfathered Health Plan Under the Affordable Care Act (CMS-9991-F) 
Abstract: The Affordable Care Act protects the ability of individuals and businesses to keep their current plan while providing important consumer protections. The new regulation also provides stability and flexibility to insurers and businesses that offer health insurance coverage as the nation transitions to a more competitive marketplace. In 2014, businesses and consumers will have more affordable choices through exchanges. This rule would finalize the requirements for group health plans and health insurance coverage in the group and individual markets and respond to any comments as the result of the interim final rule implementing this provision.
