Senator Smallwood, bill sponsor, presented
Senate Bill 19-041. Under current law, health insurance policyholders
are required to pay premiums for each individual covered under a policy
through the date that the policyholder notifies the carrier that a covered
individual becomes ineligible or no longer covered. This bill allows policyholders
to pay premiums only through the date of ineligibility or non-coverage
if a carrier is notified within 10 business days after that date. This
change does not apply in cases where a covered individual leaves a policy
because they become enrolled in the Children's Basic Health Plan.
