Even though the Republican-run Michigan House of Representatives is stalling legislation to create the Michigan Health Exchange, 2014 is quickly approaching. Starting in 2014, insurance will be available on Health Exchanges. If Michigan does create legislation creating its own Exchange, the federal government will implement one for Michigan residents. This will impact Michigan employers and individuals.
Recently on the Michigan Business Network Legal Impact Hour, Gary J. McRay, a shareholder and leader of Foster Swift's Health Care Law practice group, and Scott Wilkerson, the President and CEO of Physicians Health Plan of Mid-Michigan (www.phpmichigan.com), discussed the Health Exchange. In this radio show, Mr. McRay and Mr. Wilkerson discussed how the Exchanges will work; how the Exchanges will impact individuals and employers; how the Exchanges will impact insurance companies; and why it is important for employers to be compliant with the health care reform laws.
