California Health Benefit Exchange: navigators.

Existing law establishes the California Health Benefit Exchange within the state government, specifies the powers and duties of the board governing the Exchange, and requires the board to facilitate the purchase of qualified health plans through the Exchange by qualified individuals and small employers. Existing law also requires the board to establish the navigator program, and to select and set performance standards and compensation for navigators. This bill would require the board to ensure that the performance standards selected for navigators are not so burdensome as to prevent a qualified entity from applying.
