Health Insurance Conversion Bill Faces Roadblock in Idaho House
House Business Committee approved introducing a bill mandating health insurers allow ill unemployed workers to convert from group to individual policies. State Insurance Director Monroe Gallaher urged passage as necessary social reform, noting federal intervention risk and industry opposition. The measure, with four months’ eligibility, requires written conversion, timely premium payment, and inclusion of dependents and surviving spouses under the new policy.
