Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services [CMS], U.S. Department of Health and Human Services [HHS] Link to more items from this source
[Official Guidance]
Apr. 10, 2018

Press release. "The final rule builds on the significant steps already taken by the Administration to promote health care choice and competition and decrease costs." Includes links to related documents:

  • Fact Sheet provides highlights of the final rule.
  • Final Annual Issuer Letter provides operational and technical guidance for issuers seeking to offer in 2019 qualified health plans in the Federally-facilitated Exchanges (FFEs) or the Federally-facilitated Small Business Health Options Programs (FF-SHOPs).
  • Hardship Exemption guidance for individuals who live in counties with no issuers or only one issuer, who will now qualify for a hardship exemption from paying the ACA's penalty for not having coverage. Also allows CMS to consider a broad range of circumstances that result in hardship exemptions.
  • Extended Transitional Policy guidance extends the CMS transitional policy for one additional year.
