                                BILL NUMBER:S6810

TITLE OF BILL:
An act
to amend the insurance law, in relation to a health savings account
pilot program and providing for the repeal of such provisions upon the
expiration
thereof

PURPOSE:
This bill would allow the use of high deductible health plan
in conjunction with a health reimbursement account (HRA) or a health
savings account (HSA), in the context of an HMO product.

SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS:
The bill would add new section 1124 to the
insurance law in order to establish a pilot program permitting HMOs
to offer group high deductible health plans in conjunction with an
HRA or an HSA

JUSTIFICATION:
High Deductible Health Plans, when used in conjunction
with HRAs or HSAs, have become a popular way for employers to
continue to provide their employees with health coverage, while
maintaining sonic control and predictability in the face of the
ever-increasing costs of health care. Employers, especially

municipalities, have expressed an increasing demand for these products.

Current law permits insurance companies to offer high deductible
health plans, but has been interpreted by the Department of Health
and the Department of Financial Services to prohibit such products to
be offered by HM0s. HMO products are typically more affordable and
more comprehensive than health insurance policies, leading employers
to request the ability to pair an HMO product with a high deductible
HRA/HSA structure.

This bill would establish a pilot program, limited to municipalities,
to allow HMOs to offer group high deductible health plans, in
conjunction with an HRA or an HSA. Municipalities participating in
the pilot program must be required to contribute at least equal to
the deductible required by the plan. Such an approach will allow
municipalities to fulfill the obligations of collective bargaining
agreements and provide employees with comprehensive health insurance
coverage, while maintaining more manageable and predictable costs for
such coverage. The cost of health care has repeatedly been identified
by municipalities as a critical issue and a significant driver behind
property tax increases and other budget issues, The flexibility
permitted by this pilot program will provide municipalities with
another tool for addressing these problems.

An HMO offering this product would be required to report to the
Department of Financial Services on a variety of measures, including
consumer satisfaction and access to care.

LEGISLATIVE HISTORY:
New bill.

FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:
None.

EFFECTIVE DATE:
Immediately and shall expire December 31, 2015.
