AHA Aug. 28 supported the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services’ proposal to change how certain forms of noncomprehensive coverage can be marketed and sold. “The AHA has long advocated for limiting the availability of substandard health plans, such as short-term, limited-duration plans, and better educating consumers about the narrow circumstances in which such coverage may be appropriate,” AHA said in its letter to the agency.
