4 Agenda Marketing Community, Provider, Faith Based Retail Walmart H.E.B. Leads Looking forward, what to expect?

5 What was our August 2013 mindset? www.HealthCare.gov – “we are ready for enrollments” www.HealthCare.gov Who is a Navigator? What is a subsidy? And what will my penalty be if I do not enroll? How will the DHHS and CMS be able to handle two open enrollments at once? What is a health insurance exchange? What is a SHOP exchange? What is a SHOP exchange tax credit? What will BCBSTX pay the agents? What does “pay or play” Mean?

6 And what is our August 2014 mindset? What did we learn for the first OEP in 2013? Is www.HealthCare.gov really ready this time?www.HealthCare.gov What other health insurance companies will jump off the sideline, and where will they jump? Will the SHOP Exchange function, and if so when? How will the IRS collect back all of the subsidies that were over paid? Am I ever going to get paid on all of my cases? Why will my doctor not accept Obamacare? (What does this mean?)

12 Biggest issue with BCBSTX List bill – has to be paper for now; no electronic enrollments “Qualifying Events” must be paper app only for now The HMO network Were doctors “auto-assigned”? Did they know they were “auto-assigned”? Solutions being worked on: New systems are being developed to verify if the premium has been paid when checking in at the provider’s office
