Repeal Colorado Health Benefit Exchange

Plain-English Summary

AI-generated

Senate Bill 17-003 is a Colorado law that撤销了州内的健康福利交易所,该交易所是根据2010年联邦法律建立的。这项法案终止了由州政府管理的健康保险交易平台,并允许它在一年内继续运营以完成清算工作。在这段时间结束后,剩余的资金将被转移到州财政部门。目前,该法案已经签署成为法律。这意味着从2018年起,Colorado Health Benefit Exchange 将不再运作,其资金会被转移至州政府的一般基金中。

Official Summary

In 2010, pursuant to the enactment of federal law that allowed each state to establish a health benefit exchange option through state law or opt to participate in a national exchange, the general assembly enacted the 'Colorado Health Benefit Exchange Act' (act). The act created the state exchange, a board of directors (board) to implement the exchange, and a legislative health benefits exchange implementation review committee to make recommendations to the board. The bill repeals the act, effective January 1, 2018, and allows the exchange to continue for one year for the purpose of winding up its affairs. The bill also requires the board, on the last day of the wind-up period, to transfer any unencumbered money that remains in the exchange to the state treasurer, who shall transfer the money to the general fund. (Note: This summary applies to this bill as introduced.)
