Nev. may save millions with switch to state-based program
By Jessie Bekker, Las Vegas Review-Journal
Nevada’s health insurance marketplace, the Silver State Health Insurance Exchange, is one step closer to transitioning onto a state-based operation.
A $24.4 million, five-year contract with vendor GetInsured is set to save the state around $6 million annually starting in 2020 compared to using the federal enrollment platform, Healthcare.gov.
The exchange board voted unanimously at a Thursday meeting to approve the step.
