We need your help in requesting that the Indiana Senate OPPOSE HB 1226, which would decimate the Medicare supplement market in Indiana by making Medicare supplement plans guarantee issue.
Adding an annual guaranteed issue open enrollment period will only cause seniors to pay more in premiums and destabilize the Medicare market in Indiana. Seniors rely on the guaranteed renewable structure of Medicare supplement plans that promotes continuity of coverage and costs, adding a birthday rule would undermine this structure, causing the Medicare supplement market to become unstable, resulting in higher costs for seniors, many of whom are on a fixed income.
Please join NABIP Indiana in urging the senate to oppose HB 1226 to protect seniors from increased costs.
