Relates to notification of termination of group health insurance
This bill requires health insurers and health maintenance organizations to provide group health insurance policyholders (typically employers or organizations) with a 30-day written notice before terminating coverage. The notice must be mailed to the last known residential address of each covered individual (certificate holder or member) and include details about their coverage rights before and after termination. Exceptions apply if the policyholder already provided 30 days' notice to members or arranged replacement coverage. The policy cannot terminate until 30 days after the required notice is mailed, directly affecting employees covered under group health plans.
