1 Readers Guide to Sample Health Care Benefits Packages Under the Affordable Care Act (ACA), starting on January 1, 2014, Medicaid eligibility will expand to include all individuals under 133% of the federal poverty. 1 Most newly eligible individuals will be covered under benchmark plans. These ACA benefits packages have not been fully developed by federal regulations and state legislation. Therefore, their extent and scope in any given state are not known in detail. However, previous regulatory treatment of benchmark plans may provide some insight as to how ACA benchmark plans might be implemented. Under earlier Medicaid reforms, Congress authorized states to develop benchmark plans in which to enroll certain groups of Medicaid-eligible individuals. Few states opted to create benchmark plans. Nonetheless, current law provides for benchmark plans benefits packages offering medical coverage that is less comprehensive than full Medicaid benefits, easing a state s financial burden with respect to covering less medically needy individuals. 2 Implementing this pre-aca reform, Medicaid made clear in regulations that even if a state adopts benchmark plans, certain populations would be exempt from benchmark plans. 3 Exempt populations include individuals with serious emotional disturbances, disabling mental disorders, and physical and/or mental disabilities that prevent them from performing one or more tasks of daily living. 5 States are responsible for specifying how individuals will be identified to fall into these categories. States may offer benchmark coverage to this population so long as they are able to clearly compare the benefits of both standard and benchmark plans. 2 Depending on need, it might be more beneficial for an exempt individual to enroll in a benchmark plan, for instance, if her state s usual Medicaid benefits do not cover mental health. This is because benchmark plans must provide mental health in parity to medical and surgical. 5 On the other hand, it might be less beneficial the individual needs community-based like psychiatric rehabilitation, since benchmark plans would likely not include these benefits. 7 Sample Health Benefit Packages For an initial understanding of what this might mean for at-risk adults, the Alliance looked at the specific statutory language and created a chart to show possible variations in coverage, and to note commonly-used terms in health benefits packages. The first column summarizes standard Medicaid benefits under Title 19 (Medicaid) of the Social Security Act as well as several of the optional benefits offered by many states (italicized). Note: By statute, inpatient psychiatric in institutions for mental diseases are not covered for adults under 65 years of age. 8 The ACA does not specify how such are treated for newly-eligible beneficiaries. 1
2 The second column lists benchmark-equivalent requirements in effect now for certain groups of enrollees in states that adopted benchmark plans prior to the ACA. Under the ACA, those newly eligible under the expansion of Medicaid will also be offered benchmark benefit packages through their state. Note: ACA benchmark plans must include mental health. The third column presents essential ACA health benefits, as described in the enacted legislation. The fourth column shows the standard Blue Cross/ Blue Shield benefit plans for federal employees, which can be adopted by the state as a benchmark plan. References: 1.
