NH Insurance Department to Host Information Sessions on 2015 Networks
Wednesday, June 11, 2014
Concord, NH – The New Hampshire Insurance Department will offer information sessions next week to present basic information about the health care provider networks that are likely to be available through New Hampshire’s federally operated Health Insurance Marketplace in 2015.
The first session will take place June 17, from noon to 1 p.m. in Concord, at the University of New Hampshire School of Law, 2 White St. The second will be held June 19, from 9-9:45 a.m. at the Mount Washington Valley Economic Council’s Tech Village in Conway: 53 Technology Lane, Room 211.
Both sessions will be free and open to the public. Members of the New Hampshire Insurance Department will share information about the networks proposed by the five insurance companies that have applied to offer plans on the New Hampshire Marketplace in 2015: Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, Assurant Health, Harvard Pilgrim Health Care of New England, and two co-ops: Massachusetts‐based Minuteman Health and Maine Community Health. The presentation will focus on the types of plans (HMO, PPO, POS, etc.) that will be offered and on the hospitals included in the plans’ provider networks.
“In 2015, New Hampshire residents will have a variety of networks and plan designs to choose from,” said New Hampshire Insurance Commissioner Roger Sevigny. “We are pleased that consumers will benefit from this competition with increased choice, and we are looking forward to sharing more information about the networks with the public next week.”
