AUCD has submitted comments in in response to the proposed rule "ACA Standards Related to Essential Health Benefits, Actuarial Value and Accreditation of Qualified Health Plans."
AUCD also joins the CCD Health Taskforce in signing on to comments in response to the same rule.
The comments highlight the ideal standards for approval of EHB Benchmark plans and discusses the need to ensure all EHB plans include, at minimum, habilitative services (as well as the need to identify rehabilitative and habilitative services as separate categories), protect against substitution of EHB categories, take into account the health care needs of diverse segments of the population, and strengthen preventive and wellness services, as well as prescription drug benefits.
