MCHS recommended opposition to the AHCA, BRCA, and any changes to the coverage afforded by the ACA. The changes proposed under the AHCA and BRCA will undermine what works in the ACA without improving on the circumstances, coverage and care of Wisconsin residents in the individual and small group market. We urged Congress to take steps to improve and repair health coverage in the areas where the ACA was falling short, and to also maintain the gains that the ACA has provided to assure that no one, especially those near poverty, fall through the cracks: Stabilizing the market - Regulatory relief offered earlier this year by Secretary Tom Price at HHS gave health insurers tools to better manage their ACA individual population, but those reforms didnt go far enough to fully stabilize the market. We believe that the suggestions below will improve the ACA and ensure coverage for vulnerable populations. a. Cost sharing reduction payments - SHPs ACA individual population is heavily reliant on the cost sharing reduction (CSR) subsides paid monthly to help our members lower their out-of-pocket costs. Nearly half of the total enrollment in SHPs ACA products is eligible and enrolled in this important program. We recommend that Congress should fully fund CSR payments to health insurance carriers for 2018 and beyond and allow states that have already reached their filing deadline to reopen carriers bids to allow for an adjustment to rates. b. Extension of the reinsurance program - The transitional reinsurance program established by the ACA helped to hold down premiums in 2014, 2015 and 2016. Our Plans experience shows that premiums would have been nearly 20 percent higher in 2014 and 6 percent higher in 2015, had this program not been in effect. We recommend that Congress create a reinsurance program similar to the program that expired in 2017 to stabilize premiums in the ACA individual market for the long term. c. Continuous coverage provision - The ACA provisions that provide for a three-month grace period and avoid tax penalties has created a perverse incentive for enrollees to stay insured for just enough time to avoid the penalty. We recommend that Congress should create a continuous enrollment provision or late enrollment penalty similar to Medicares Part B and Part D to incentivize 12 month enrollment in the ACA individual market. d. Risk adjustment program enhancements - We recommend that HHS risk adjustment program should pay carriers a capitation for members whose risk scores exceed a certain predefined value. Lower-than-current future rate increases would reduce expenditures for the advanced premium tax credits. e. Federal funding for enrollee outreach - Health insurance and the subsidies available to help area residents afford coverage is a complex and confusing topic. We recommend that navigator services should be re-instated and funds prioritized to rural areas for community outreach. Challenges of serving rural Wisconsin . We serve about 1 million residents in our rural area Subsidization of health coverage for low income Wisconsinites has helped mainstream tens of thousands into traditional commercial coverage through the Health Insurance Marketplace. This has been vital to the health of our patients enabling us to educate patients and include them in prevention programs.","Centers For Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS),Health & Human Services, Dept of (HHS),HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,SENATE,Veterans Affairs, Dept of (VA)",,100000,0,0,2018-07-12T12:28:04.530000-04:00 2143041,f980186e-e348-4d3d-b2d4-e31d8893f547,Q2,"CARPI & CLAY, INC",35640,SUTTER BUTTE FLOOD CONTROL AGENCY,2018,second_quarter,INS,"National Flood Insurance Program; re-authorization of NFIP and FARM cost reduction act, HR 2170","Army, Dept of (Corps of Engineers),Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ),Defense, Dept of (DOD),Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA),HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,Office of Management & Budget (OMB),SENATE",20000,,0,0,2018-07-12T13:01:22.033000-04:00 2143206,df739a65-4879-4482-b73c-8363c6475432,Q2,AMERICAN OSTEOPATHIC ASSOCIATION,3014,AMERICAN OSTEOPATHIC ASSOCIATION,2018,second_quarter,INS,Professional Liability Insurance; Health Insurance,"Agency for Healthcare Research & Quality (AHRQ),Centers For Disease Control & Prevention (CDC),Centers For Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS),Executive Office of the President (EOP),Food & Drug Administration (FDA),Government Accountability Office (GAO),Health & Human Services, Dept of (HHS),Health Resources & Services Administration (HRSA),HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,Medicare Payment Advisory Commission (MedPAC),Office of Management & Budget (OMB),SENATE,White House Office",,286075,0,0,2018-07-12T15:43:04.793000-04:00 2143604,a6641f6f-7ddd-47a1-88a1-e6bbcccacb76,Q2,"ALPINE GROUP PARTNERS, LLC.",1171,LOUISIANA FLOOD RISK COALITION,2018,second_quarter,INS,"Issues associated with the National Flood Insurance Program, including reauthorization Issues associated with mitigating flood risk Hurricane protection and flood control","HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,SENATE",20000,,0,0,2018-07-13T11:06:15.207000-04:00 2143765,dc122881-48cf-4228-8101-a7a181a0a7cc,Q2,STATE FARM MUTUAL AUTOMOBILE INSURANCE COMPANY,36537,STATE FARM MUTUAL AUTOMOBILE INSURANCE COMPANY,2018,second_quarter,INS,"Covered agreement between the United States and the European Union with respect to group supervision, reinsurance, and the exchange of information between supervisory authorities.
