CMS is proposing to shave another 0.25% off the federal exchange user fee. I have mixed feelings about this; it would save enrollees around $18/year apiece on average, but as @BenDAvanzo notes, this is one of the few federal programs that has a dedicated funding source, so...
There's several big wonky sections related to changes to how ACA risk adjustment works. I don't know enough about risk adjustment to comment, so I've just posted the descriptions as is.

CMS is expanding the timeframe for people who are kicked off of Medicaid to select an #ACA exchange plan via Special Enrollment from 60 days to 150 days (60 before / 90 after).
That'll be a huge thing once the Public Health Emergency ends & millions lose Medicaid eligibility.

CMS is also proposing to let exchanges offer an earlier effective start date to avoid people having up to a 16-day coverage gap if they lose coverage mid-month. This, again, is probably mostly triggered by the impending end of the PHE, but it applies in other cases as well.

The re-enrollment change is HUGE. Until now, if you don't take any action, CMS will automatically re-enroll you in the exact same policy, but if it's not available they'll re-enroll you in whatever the closest equivalent to that plan is. For the most part this makes sense... #xp
...but a LOT of people enroll in Bronze plans when they're eligible for a high-CSR plan, often w/the same carrier & the same provider network. Going forward, CMS is proposing to auto-renew people in that situation into #SecretPlatinum plans instead, saving them hundreds! #xp

Robin Williams starred in Moscow on the Hudson, in which he plays a Soviet-era Russian saxophone player who defects to the U.S. in New York City.
In one scene, he's overwhelmed by the bewildering number of coffee brands available at the grocery store.

I picture this scene whenever I think about the glut of "different" insurance policies available in some states via the #ACA exchanges. While too little choice is a real problem, so is *too many choices* when the enrollee can't make heads or tails of the differences between them.
