According to a recent study, health insurance premiums could increase for individual plans on the ACA marketplace between 35 and 94 percent by 2021. Concern over health care is nothing new; in fact, this is the fifth consecutive year that Americans have ranked health care as a top concern.
At least for now, many aspects of ACA are still in place. Currently, an insurer can’t turn you away for a pre-existing condition, and long-term health insurance plans still have to provide coverage for ACA’s 10 essential health care benefits. Prior to 2010, private health insurance usually did not cover maternity, or preventative like it does now, and mental health was generally non-existent.
Health insurance, which has always been a topic surrounded by confusion, is doubly complicated as coverage requirements have evolved in recent years. Among the most significant changes was the individual mandate that was put into place under the Obama administration.
Nevada has taken the first steps toward an in-house enrollment site (Nevada Health Link), which would offer a better user experience and significant cost savings over Healthcare.gov. However, some experts see the merit in the switch, others are concerned that it will be a repeat of the 2014 fiasco.
A major medical health insurance plan is a comprehensive medical plan that can help you pay for doctor’s visits, hospitalization, and prescription drugs if you should become sick or injured.
In April of 2017, the Nevada Senate approved a bill that will nearly double the minimum liability coverage limits. Beginning on July 1, 2018, drivers will be required to carry at least $25,000 in bodily injury liability, $50,000 in bodily injury liability per accident, and $20,000 in property damage liability.
