An act relating to expanding options for association health plans

H 203 would expand the eligibility for association health plans (AHPs) in Vermont, allowing more types of organizations - such as professional or trade associations - to offer these health insurance options. Currently, AHPs are limited to specific association types, but this bill would broaden that scope, potentially giving more Vermont residents access to alternative coverage. It directly affects members of qualifying associations who may gain new health insurance choices through their group. The bill is pending review by the Health Care Committee after its initial referral.
