An Act directing the division of insurance to regularly report on the performance of the merged non-group and small-group health insurance markets

This bill requires Massachusetts' Division of Insurance to produce a comprehensive report at least every five years on the merged non-group and small-group health insurance market. The report must analyze trends in premiums, cost-sharing, and plan characteristics (like age, risk, and geography), healthcare utilization patterns using confidential data, and market competition between insurers. It mandates collaboration with the Commonwealth Health Connector Authority and health data analysts, while ensuring all collected data remains confidential. The reports will be published online and shared with legislative committees to inform policy decisions. This directly affects the Division of Insurance, health data agencies, and the state's health insurance market oversight.
