Question 1 – Should coverage provisions be construed broadly and exclusion clauses narrowly? If so, why? If not, why not?
Closing out the meeting was John Connolly who serves as Associate Director of Insure the Uninsured. Connolly detailed the Covered California healthcare exchange as a commercial insurance provider. Connolly spent the majority of his time speaking addressing the improvements to coverage, and eligibility changes to applicable California residents. Making a repeated and substantial effort to state how the commercial insurance exchange would work, Connolly showed the various healthcare providers that would be available to certain individuals, and an estimation of the average cost per provider. The most significant aspect of Connolly’s presentation was his outline of the new health insurance plan tier levels, ranging from “Bronze” to “Platinum”. Bronze tier coverage represented the tier with the smallest amount of payment made by the plan and highest amount of payment made by the consumer, and Platinum tier coverage representing the highest amount of payment made by the plan and lowest amount paid by consumer.

There are providers, of public hospitals community and rural health centers, and local health department considered to be safety net providers that service the uninsured. But the result of increased demand has caused limited capacity and decreased treatment options due to eroding finances (KFF, 2013). In order to improve the well beings of Americans, it is imperative to establish a health care policy that will deliver comprehensive coverage for all.
While there are provisions within the law that provide for some safeguards for an insurance company accepting a higher percentage of higher risk patients compared to others, the insurance company is no longer in control of the amount of risk it accepts and these safeguards may be limited in time (American Academy of Actuaries, 2013).

Furthermore, firms with 50 or more workers will be required to contribute at least 60% of the cost for individual minimum essential coverage. Using the grandfathered plans, many small businesses are able avoid the costly mandated and new regulations by renewing less-expensive
You cannot be dropped from a marketplace plan, so an insurance carrier cannot single you out based on health or anything of that nature and exclude you from the plan going forward. There is no annual or lifetime maximum from a benefit standpoint. So previously plans used to have maybe a million dollar lifetime maximum which would rarely ever come into play. But now there in maximum, so insurance company is on the hook for whatever may transpire down the road. Children can be covered up to age 26. Children whether they are living with the parents, living in another state, or have their own families they can stay in the plan until they’re 26 years of
Another fee required by employers who have self-insured group health plans is the state established transitional “reinsurance program,” which is to be paid between the years 2014 through 2016 (Grant Thornton LLP, 2013). The hope of this fee is to stabilize premiums in the individual insurance market. The Transitional Reinsurance Fee will be determined by multiplying the average number of individual employees covered by the plan and multiplied by the contribution rate for the relevant year (Grant Thornton LLP, 2013). Per the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), self-insured group health plans that provide major medical coverage will be charged a contribution rate of $63 per plan participant (Grant Thornton LLP, 2013).

Several of my local municipalities were successful in obtaining such funding as their existing wastewater treatment facilities were at capacity. Further the SuperBuild Sports, Culture and Tourism Partnership was introduced to renew, improve and expand these
