Regulatory Oversight


Embedded Case Manager in the ED
Anticipating that your planned health coverage premium increases will meet with regulatory and consumer pushback? A December 8, 2010 webinar will describe how health plans can develop a sound policy for premium rate increases that will meet with regulatory approval and resonate with healthcare reform efforts.

October 26, 2010

SEA GIRT, NJ, USA — With increased government oversight on healthcare premium rate increases and negative perceptions in the marketplace for increases, health plans are facing a tough environment to justify rate increases.

Find out more about health plan rate setting.

  • Scheduled Speakers: John Steele and Steve Young, both managing directors, HealthScape Advisors.

  • Conference Focus: Developing sound justifications for premium rate increases; balancing rate increases with new health plan reform requirements; examining your organization's book of business for appropriate premium rate increases; addressing state-by-state requirements for multi-state plans; using product design and product portfolio in the rate setting process; meeting multiple levels of regulatory obligations; and ensuring that your organization’s medical loss ratio will not impact your ability to raise rates.
