Bill > S766

This bill establishes a public health insurance option to be offered through the Commonwealth Connector, alongside other health benefit plans. The public option is required to meet the Connector's standards for minimum creditable coverage and will be available to eligible individuals and small and large groups starting in 2025. The bill also creates a Public Health Insurance Trust Fund to finance the public option and authorizes the Commissioner of Insurance to establish a risk adjustment program for all health plans in the state, except self-insured group plans. Additionally, the bill expands the Commonwealth Connector's authority to offer large group plans alongside the public option.
