(Bloomberg) Insurers participating in Obamacare may have to expand their plans to include more federally funded health clinics, safety-net hospitals and other medical providers used by low-income people, under a U.S. proposal.
Health plans offered through government-run insurance exchanges may be required to cover 30% of essential community providers in each county in 2015, an increase from 20% this year, according to a document obtained by Bloomberg News. The proposal will be outlined Tuesday in a letter to insurers from the Health and Human Services Department.
