Employee Benefits Advisory: The Impact of Technical Corrections to the Massachusetts Health Care Reform Act on Employers and Employer-Sponsored Group Heath Plans
12/1/2006
The Massachusetts Legislature recently passed, and Governor Romney recently signed, a technical corrections measure-Chapter 324 of the Acts of 2006, An Act Relative to Health Care Access-which makes certain important changes to the Massachusetts health-care reform act. Many employers and employer-friendly interest groups had hoped for major structural changes to the Act, only to be disappointed.Chapter 324 changes little if anything of substance. It does, however, push back some effective dates and makes a handful of minor adjustments.
See this Mintz Levin Advisory for these dates and adjustments.
