Georgia Legislators Look at Overwhelming Insurance Laws
Thursday, March 5th, 2015
Georgia lawmakers considered insurance bills Wednesday that would create major changes in health plan networks in the state.
The Senate Insurance and Labor Committee first heard testimony on Senate Bill 143, which would require the state employee and teacher health plan to include the state’s five Level 1 trauma centers as “in-network” facilities.
That would help Grady Health System, a trauma center in Atlanta that is now “out-of-network” for Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Georgia members.
