The primary bill
sponsor, Representative Barron, introduced House Bill 25B-1004 to the House
Health and Human Services Committee. Currently, the Health Insurance Affordability
Enterprise (HIAE) draws down federal funds to fund the Reinsurance program
and assesses a fee on health insurance carriers to fund programs to reduce
individual market premiums. The bill removes the allocation requirements
for fees collected after July 1, 2026, and requires the board to make new
allocation rules that prioritize reducing costs for documented residents.
The bill also places new reporting requirements on the HIAE. |
