Unhappy Consumers May Switch Exchange Plans Before the End of March
Park City, Utah (PRWEB) February 16, 2014
Today, Zane Benefits, the #1 Online Health Benefits Solution, published new information on health insurance exchange plan enrollment.
According to Zane Benefits' website, in a memo distributed February 6, 2014 to insurers, federal health officials said that HealthCare.gov consumers may pick a different health plan before the end of March 2014 if they are dissatisfied with the one they chose, but only if they stay with the same insurer and the same general level of coverage.
According to Zane Benefits' website, consumers will also be given more freedom and a longer opportunity to get a new health plan -- if they can prove that HealthCare.gov, the new health insurance marketplace website for 36 states, displayed inaccurate information about the benefits the health plan offered.
The new leeway comes after some policyholders discovered that the health plans they bought did not include their old doctors or did not allow them to add new children or spouses.
According to Zane Benefits' website, this new flexibility is similar to open enrollment rules with private health insurance. Most private insurance allows policyholders to switch to a different health plan during open enrollment periods.
