Reuse, Sharing and Collaboration Sample Clauses

Reuse, Sharing and Collaboration. The business functions of certifying, renewing and managing the Qualified Health Plans (QHPs) available in the Arkansas Marketplace are elements of Plan Management and will be the state’s responsibility in the SPM. State regulators and insurers need an efficient, effective and compliant means to submit and review health plans for certification and inclusion in the Marketplace. Currently, AID uses the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) System for Electronic Rate and Form Filling (SERFF), developed in 1998, to support handling of insurance policy rate and form filings from Arkansas’s issuers. As previously noted, AHCD is utilizing SERFF as a single point of interaction for Arkansas issuers to submit plans for certification and renewal and for Arkansas state regulators to certify, renew and manage QHPs participating in the FFM. SERFF’s role and approach leverages existing systems, assist states in certifying QHPs and facilitates integration. Using existing information technology will mitigate costs and lessen the burden to issuers of adapting to a new system. AHCD Accounts Manager Xxxxx Xxxxxxxxx attended all NAIC/SERFF forums and any SERFF related forums at State Grantee Meetings. He assisted with SERFF adjustments to meet plan management needs. The plans reviewed will eventually land up in the federal Health Insurance Oversight System (HIOS). XXXX identified five goals and objectives held by stakeholders in the SERFF Plan Management project:  G01- Enhance SERFF to allow state departments of insurance to meet their Plan Management functions  G02- Streamline the process for insurers submitting plans for inclusion on the Marketplace  G03- Support integration between applications involved in Marketplace operations  G04- Provide flexibility to the states regarding Plan Management  G05- Minimize duplicative entry. Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx also helped coordinate state-NAIC requirements development and planning for the Arkansas- SERFF Plan Management Functions to facilitate the Department using SERFF in the selection process for QHPs. This work included close collaboration between the AHCD Plan Management Specialist and the Compliance Division Compliance Officer. We were pleased with SERFF functioning for the first year review and recommendation cycle.
