6 Qualified Health Plan Requirements Exchanges must ensure health plans meet two basic requirements to be certified as a QHP: the issuer must demonstrate compliance with the minimum certification requirements the Exchange must determine that offering the plan is in the interest of qualified individuals and employers Network Adequacy An Exchange must ensure that a QHP offers a sufficient choice of providers Exchanges are given discretion to establish network adequacy standards, with no minimum requirements specified QHPs must include essential community providers in their network 12 6
7 Transparency Issuers must disclose the following for QHPs: claims payment policies and practices financial data data on enrollment and disenrollment data on the number of claims that are denied rating practices information on cost sharing and payments with respect to any out-of-network coverage information on enrollment rights 13 Standards for QHP Issuer Offer QHP through the Exchange Comply with state licensure requirements and ACA requirements Meet benefit design standards (including essential health benefit coverage and cost-sharing requirements) Abide by Exchange procedural requirements Implement and report on quality improvement strategies Comply with standards related to risk adjustment 14 7
