Insurance: health benefits; certification for qualified health plan and qualified dental plan; provide for. Amends 1956 PA 218 (MCL 500.100 - 500.8302) by adding sec. 3406mm. TIE BAR WITH: SB 0633'23
This bill directs the state insurance director to work with the Michigan health insurance exchange to officially certify qualified health and dental plans. It requires the director to create specific rules for this certification process while preserving the ability to regulate insurance businesses and exempt these plans from certain laws. The definitions for qualified health and dental plans are taken directly from existing state legislation. The bill will not become law unless a related companion bill, Senate Bill 633, is also passed.
