Bill overview
The Bipartisan Health Insurance Affordability Act aims to extend and modify enhanced premium tax credits for health insurance purchased through the Health Insurance Marketplaces. It increases premium assistance for lower-income taxpayers, adjusts the calculation of premium tax credits for household incomes between 150% and 200% of the poverty line, and establishes stricter penalties for fraudulent enrollment in qualified health plans. Additionally, the bill seeks to strengthen consumer protections by requiring exchanges to verify enrollment information and notify individuals of their premium tax credit amounts. Finally, it extends the annual open enrollment period and modernizes accountability for pharmacy benefit managers.
