Description
The course will focus on the law surrounding three key principles of health insurance reform: (1) providing expanded access to health care coverage through private insurance plans in both the commercial and government subsidized markets; (2) the need by both health insurers and health care providers to change provider payment systems that impact health care costs and quality outcomes; and (3) the challenges associated with greater consumer engagement in the health insurance marketplace through the design and pricing of health benefit plans as, well as increased health care cost transparency. The objective of the course is to examine the legal interplay of the three principles referenced above in the health insurance market context as they are viewed as prerequisites to meaningful health insurance reform in the United States.
