State commissions oversee health insurance companies, right? So if cheetoh eliminates boundaries,

By state, who oversees and controls health insurance companies then? How would the requirements and rules be set, and who would people address their complaints to?

In Hawaii, we pay about 450 a month for a single person for good health insurance.

Thanks folks, and good luck to all.

1. That is the point. A state that protects the consumer wont be able to. The plan all along

with opening borders for sales (sure, they want open borders when it suits them) is to eliminate pesky departments of insurance which try to protect the customers.

America is done, folks. For real. Like I keep saying and saying and saying, it is OVER, the question is how do we get nukes out of the hands of the madman and into the hands of the other guy who also doesnt belong anywhere near the WH given the election was stolen outright.

2. We'll see every health insurance company create an LLC in Mississippi

or some other poor state run by Republicans and there will be no oversight or control.

3. I would like to know that, too.

Would states no longer be allowed to set their own insurance regulations and consumer protections?

I really don't see how allowing health insurers to sell across state lines would significantly reduce costs for consumers or increase "competition." Most of the companies that would sell across state lines are the handful of large corporations that dominate the market now. Inevitably there would be more mergers, and we would end up with just one or two giant insurance companies controlling the whole market.

4. Does eveyone forget that insurance companies offer cheaper deals for using providers in their

network? If you get an insurance in another state, how far will you need to go to be in network? Allowing you to buy insurance across state lines is a RW shell game.

5. Probably go to Federal oversight.

Which means, depending on the administration, it could go pro industry or pro consumer. But either way, it will be slower and less effective than state agencies.

It will probably change actuarial calculations as well. As you are no longer rating to the state population but countrywide. So states like Mississippi which overall is unhealthy or West Virginia with its coal related illnesses will now get cheaper insurance because they are being subsidized by states like Washington and Oregon. And those states will get a premium hike. Basically sweeping the lack of health regulation in the State under the rug and having good regulatory states pay for it.

6. No one controls the insurance companies now.
