Extension of Transitional Policies Through Calendar Year 2018


On March 2, 2017, the Insurance Department issued Bulletin No. LH 2017-01, informing health insurance issuers that they may elect to continue transitional health insurance plans. As background, these plans are not subject to certain provisions of the PPACA. This bulletin reflects the Center for Consumer Information and Insurance Oversight’s (CCIIO) guidance allowing states the option to extend transitional policies for individual and small group health insurance plans to policy years beginning on or before October 1, 2018 provided that all policies end by December 31, 2018.
