CMS Releases Final Summary of Benefits and Coverage Template, Accompanying Materials
Timothy Jost, in Health Affairs Forefront Link to more items from this source
[Guidance Overview]
Apr. 7, 2016

"The biggest innovation of the final SBC is that terms used in an electronic SBC can be fully hyperlinked to the uniform glossary. The current glossary is a single pdf file, but each term of the new glossary can be linked independently to the SBC. The terms used on each definition in the glossary are also hyperlinked to their definitions in the glossary. Insurers can also link to the glossary by hovering over a term. The final SBC template is essentially unchanged from the proposed version. The only perceptible difference is that the coverage examples now accommodate both plans that use coinsurance and plans that use copayments for the services listed. The uniform glossary is also essentially unchanged except that several definitions have been edited for readability. There are more changes between the proposed and final instructions, but these are quite technical."
