Collect & Publish Health Insurance Denial Rates

I am your constituent and I want you to know that a Kaiser Family review of Affordable Care Act data found that health insurance claims denials varied between 5.7% and 41.9%. It is incredibly hard to find health insurance claims denial rates and prior authorization denial rates for each type of policy. Good news - you can fix this and make all of us better consumers by enacting legislation that has our state’s insurance commissioner collect the data yearly and publish it yearly. I want you to do that. I am sure you don’t want the insurance company with a 41.9% denial rate, do you? Thank you.
