Description
The Affordable Care Act (ACA) imposes adjusted community rating in the small group market. Employers can avoid by self-insuring and raising concerns about adverse selection. Presenters will discuss the results from a study evaluating the impact of community rating regulations on employer self-insurance across industries with varied health risk, using cross-state variation in pre-ACA small group market rating regulations and data from a nationally representative survey of employer health benefits. It was found that lower risk employers subject to laws limiting allowable premium rating variation had a predicted probability of self-insurance that is about 18 percentage points higher than otherwise similar higher risk employers, suggesting that these selection concerns are warranted. This webcast will discuss the implications of these findings for projecting the ACA's potential impact on the composition of health risk in the small group market, as well as how various other policies, including changes to the ACA, might impact the market.
