Title: ●Enhancing Coverage of Preventive Services under the Affordable Care Act | |
Abstract:
This rule would amend the regulations implementing the Affordable Care Act’s requirement that non-grandfathered group health plans and health insurance issuers offering non-grandfathered group or individual health insurance coverage cover recommended preventive services without cost sharing. Among other actions, the rule would take steps to expand access to certain recommended preventive items and services that are available over-the-counter; require coverage of certain preventive drugs and drug-led devices in a manner that minimizes barriers to accessing the drug or drug-led device of one’s choice; reduce the likelihood that individuals face unexpected out-of-pocket costs when they receive preventive services; and ensure medical management techniques are reasonable and do not unduly prevent individuals from accessing certain preventive services. Together, these actions would make it easier for covered individuals to access certain preventive services and improve health outcomes. |
