United States of CareSupportAdvocacy
Summary: United States of Care, a nonprofit advocacy organization, supports the CMS review of the Essential Health Benefits (EHB) framework provided it preserves state flexibility and maintains comprehensive coverage. They argue against using employer-based plans as a maximum coverage standard or using actuarial value to determine benefits, emphasizing that expanding EHB coverage is essential for affordability and consumer protection.
To whom it may concern, please see the attached comment letter from United States of care in response to CMS's EHB Request for Information.
Many thanks for the opportunity to comment.
