California Insurance Commissioner Ricardo Lara responded to Trump Administration health insurance proposals contained in its Notice of Benefit and Payment Parameters for 2021 the annual modification of federal rules that relate to the Affordable Care Act.In issuing his letter to the Trump Administration Commissioner Lara said This edition of Trump Administration health rules contains proposals that threaten the stability of health insurance markets especially for those whose premiums are largely subsidized through health insurance exchanges. I oppose the Trump Administration proposal to change automatic re-enrollment rules in a way that would cancel subsidies for consumers who rely on automatic enrollment. I also oppose proposed changes to rules regarding state selection of mandated health benefits and urge caution in development of benefit plan designs that in trying to provide incentives for consumers to obtain selected services might discriminate against other consumers with other serious health conditions.
