Maryland- Health Exchange Council: Brokers Should Market Small-Group Plans

A group tasked with implementing federal health reform in Maryland is recommending that insurance agents and brokers continue to sell small-group health insurance when health exchanges begin operating in the state.

...

The recommendations, contained in a reported required by the Maryland Health Benefit Exchange Act, which passed in 2011 and authorized creation of the state’s health exchange, include policy recommendations, including how the exchange should contract with insurance plans; how the exchange should offer insurance to small businesses and their employees; how the navigator program should work; how to set rules to assure a broad pool of risk; how to finance the exchange; and how to educate and inform the public about new opportunities for health insurance.
