Bill > S685

This bill amends Chapter 176O of Massachusetts law to require health insurance carriers to provide more comprehensive and transparent information directly on their enrollment cards. Specifically, the bill mandates that carriers must prominently display several key pieces of information, including a statement confirming the plan is fully-insured and subject to Massachusetts insurance laws, the carrier's name and specific health plan details, a toll-free member services number, contact information for third-party benefit administrators, copayment amounts for various types of medical services (such as preventive care, office visits, emergency department visits, and prescription drugs), whether the plan has a deductible and its amount, and any additional information the insurance commissioner determines is necessary. The goal of this legislation is to help consumers more easily understand their health insurance coverage and access important information about their specific plan at a glance.
