The Alabama Department of Insurance and the Center for Consumer Information and Insurance Oversight (CCIIO) with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services entered into a Collaborative Enforcement Agreement in 2016.
This Bulletin is to inform carriers of the filing deadlines for PY 2023 as they pertain to Alabama. As you are aware, the Qualified Health Plan (QHP) Data Submission and Certification for Plan Year 2023 was issued on March 1, 2022. Please visit https://www.cms.gov/files/document/py2023-qhp-data-submission-and-certification-timeline-bulletin.pdf for guidance on submission deadlines.
The non-QHP form filings will follow the same timetable as QHP form filings.
