Statewide Insurance Enrollment Assistance Program; establish within the Mississippi Department of Insurance.
SB 2722 proposed creating Mississippi's Statewide Insurance Enrollment Assistance Program (SIEAP) within the Department of Insurance to provide free, unbiased help with health insurance applications and plan comparisons for Medicaid, Medicare, and CHIP. The bill required the state to develop county-by-county uninsured data reports to target resources and simplify Medicaid renewal procedures to reduce coverage loss. It also directed the creation of a program to encourage small employers to participate in existing insurance programs through incentives. The SIEAP would train staff and partner with community organizations to offer personalized guidance at health fairs and enrollment events.
