New Tool Makes Smart Health Plan Choices Easier for Pennsylvanians

By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Managed Care Weekly Digest -- Newswire/ -- The Affordable Care Act states that the health insurance marketplaces (Exchanges) will "assist consumers in making easy health insurance choices." Through a partnership with the Pennsylvania Insurance Department, Pennsylvanians now have a plan-comparison tool built to achieve that goal at HYPERLINK "https://pa.checkbookhealth.org/hie/pa/2017/" npa.checkbookhealth.org. The tool compares not only plans on the public Exchanges but also plans that are not on the Exchanges (see also Business News).

The tool is developed and hosted by Consumers' Checkbook, a nonprofit organization with 40 years of experience helping consumers choose health plans, doctors, hospitals, and other providers. Checkbook has also created similar tools in Illinois, Missouri, Minnesota, Vermont, and Washington, D.C.
