In reply to What are the govrnmen rules on insurance companies, posted by PhoenixGirl on February 8, 2004, at 9:17:51
I'm not at all an expert, and only ran into the ones that affected me when I started therapy, etc.
There are also a number of organizations that can regulate the insurance companies, from Federal laws, state laws, etc.
Some of the rules they can place regarding insurance companies include limiting exclusions, requiring payment for certain types of services, requiring the insurer to cover the dependents of the insured after divorce, COBRA, and numerous other things.
Again, there are many organizations, many laws, and what is true in one state may not be true in another.
