Summary
Self-Insurance Protection Act
This bill specifies that stop-loss coverage is not health insurance coverage for purposes of regulation under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, the Public Health Service Act, and the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.
Stop-loss policies are generally obtained by self-insured health plans or sponsors of self-insured group health plans to reimburse the plan or sponsor for losses incurred in providing health benefits to plan participants in excess of a level set forth in the stop-loss policy.
The bill also preempts state laws that prevent employers from obtaining stop-loss coverage.
