On September 5, 2014, CMS is publishing a final rule that specifies additional options for annual eligibility redeterminations and renewal and re-enrollment notice requirements for qualified health plans (QHP) offered through the ACA insurance Exchange/Marketplace, beginning with annual redeterminations for coverage for plan year 2015. The rule provides an auto-enrollment process intended to provide current Marketplace consumers with a simple way to keep their 2014 QHP, although CMS encourages consumers to reevaluate their plan options and financial assistance eligibility for 2015. The rule also gives state-based Marketplaces flexible options to implement annual redetermination procedures.
