CT trade association health plans get tepid OK from key player

U.S. NEWS


The Connecticut legislature’s Insurance and Real Estate Committee has devoted much of its time and energy in recent years to understanding the rising cost of health care — and putting forth legislation to regulate it.

Among the priorities this year for Rep. Kerry Wood, a Rocky Hill Democrat who co-chairs the committee, was passing a bill that would allow industry associations to offer large group health plans to their members — a proposal trade groups say would go a long way to reducing health insurance costs for many small businesses and nonprofits.
