State Insurance Commissioners Opposed to Health Insurance Sales Across State Lines From the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, “Interstate Health Insurance Sales: Myth vs. Reality:”Interstate Health Insurance Sales: Myth vs. Reality “Interstate sales will start a race to the bottom by allowing companies to choose their regulator. This isn’t about the mandates. Mandated benefits add, at most, 5% to the cost of a policy. Interstate sales would actually reduce the options available to consumers. Allowing insurance to be sold across state lines would eliminate the ability of insurance regulators to assist consumers.” 4
