Issue Position: Health Insurance

Issue Position

In my last election, I promised to pass an HMO's grievance procedures law. This past year, my legislation HB640, in which I was the sole sponsor, was signed into law and is known as the "HMO Accountability Act". Although many people worked on this legislation, it's passing was mostly do to my efforts, and the hard work of my committee members. As Chairman of the powerful Commerce Committee, which includes consumer protection over Banks & Insurance Companies.

I am in a key position to ensure NH citizens can acquire affordable Health Insurance. This past year, as a board member of NH Healthy Kids, I have worked as Chairman of the Adult Coverage Study, working on how to 'Broaden the Insurance' to include parents of Healthy Kids Insurance.
