NAHU Cap Con: Sen. Ayotte affirms support for MLR fix, other ACA changes

Published Updated 3 Min Read

The issues with the Affordable Care Act go far beyond a botched enrollment process, Sen. Kelly Ayotte (R-N.H.) told members of the National Association of Health Underwriters Tuesday at the organization’s annual Capitol Conference. Made clear by recent town halls she’s held, Ayotte says there is “sheer confusion” among the general public on everything from co-pays and deductibles to provider network limitations.

As a result, “now more than ever, your advice is critical,” she told the more than 800 NAHU members gathered in Washington. However, Ayotte said the broker’s ability to provide advice remains in jeopardy, thanks to the medical loss ratio provision of the ACA.
