Guaranteed Issue Rights for Medicare Supplement Policies upon termination of coverage; require policies to provide.
SB 2733 would require Mississippi insurers to offer Medicare supplement policies to eligible residents without denying coverage or charging higher premiums due to health conditions, specifically when they lose or voluntarily end employer-sponsored group health coverage or Medicaid. It directly affects Medicare-eligible Mississippians (often seniors working past 65) who would otherwise face barriers to obtaining supplemental coverage. The law would mandate that insurers provide "guaranteed issue" rights during these transitions, ensuring access regardless of pre-existing health status. However, the bill died in committee on February 3, 2026, and did not become law.
