All plans newly issued after 9/23/2010 must have a PPACA compliant plan design. To date the Illinois Department of Insurance has not approved any of the PPACA plan design marketing materials. Therefore, we are forced to use pre-9/23/2010 material for marketing purposes.
The changes you will find on new business cases issued after 9/23/2010 are as follows per the “News from the Blues" for producers August 18, 2010:
No life time benefit maximums
Well Adult Care (age 16 and over) and Well Child Care (to age 16) will be replaced with Preventive Care (only for new groups and renewing groups making plan changes)
Eliminating benefit maximums for Therapy Services – Speech, Occupational and Physical, Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) Dysfunction and Related Disorders
Private Duty Nursing benefit maximum per month will reference “Please refer to Certificate for details,” which will reflect no limit of benefit |
