I have no concept how the mandates work or are applied. MD has 58 mandated benefits and not a single indie carrier - not even BX complies with all of them.
Another great post - shows how we need FREE MARKET and elimination of costly, worthless socialized mandates. Well intended by politicians to get elected - it is a complete failure.
Eventually this "could" lead to "standardized" plans A, B, C, D , E with individual plans - I do sense my clients frustration shopping around and the only gauge they have to shop is the slime ball agent trying to get the most commission out of them.
If they did a A-F on the mandates, it might work... Ohhh wait 58 mandates, we might have to use the chinese alphabet then....
