IMPORTANT: Seven HealthKeeper Plans Revised Due to IRS Violation
The Bureau of Insurance (BOI) rescinded their earlier approval of seven 2015 Anthem Small Group Healthkeepers (SGH) plans. The plans violated an IRS code that does not permit both the copayment and coinsurance for emergency room care.
The BOI re-approved the following impacted plans after the coinsurance was removed:
- Gold OAPOS 1500/20%/3500
- Gold OAPOS 1500/30%/4250
- Gold OAPOS 500/20%/3500
- Gold OAPOS 2000/20%/3500
- Silver OAPOS 4000/20%/6600
