Rep. Norman Thurston (R)

HB 127 (Health Insurance Right to Shop Amendments)

Libertas Institute supports this bill.

This bill requires the state's health care insurer of government employees to allow them to shop for lower cost options, providing them with a financial incentive to do so.

Libertas Institute supports this bill. We hope that awareness of this option, and the reduction in price that happens when people are aware of the costs of the services they use, will result in pressure for private health care insurers to create a similar program.
