Summary: Elevance Health supports the HHS's decision to restore the ACA's original statutory framework for Essential Health Benefits (EHBs) and the "typical employer plan" methodology. The company argues that maintaining these standards preserves fiscal responsibility, market stability, and affordability while advocating for any future refinements to be narrowly tailored and evidence-based.
