BULLETIN
Docket No.: INS NO. 02-023-AB
DATE:
October 17, 2002
TO:
All Companies Licensed to Sell Health Insurance
FROM:
Paula T. Rogers,
Insurance Commissioner
RE:
TRICARE Supplemental Insurance
TRICARE (formerly CHAMPUS) supplemental coverage is a compliment to the federal
TRICARE program and does not meet the New Hampshire minimum standards for accident
and health insurance policies. The New Hampshire Insurance Commissioner, pursuant to
authority granted under N.H Rev. Stat. Ann. §415-A.III, finds, however, that it is in the public
interest to review TRICARE supplemental coverage filings and apply appropriate standards.
Therefore, filings will be required to meet the standards contained in N.H. Rev. Stat. Ann. §§
415:1, 415:2, 415:3, 415:5, 415-A and 415:18.I and additional statutes and regulations as they
may apply.
The Department will require that insurers include as an attachment to an approved policy a
notice to the applicant as follows:
NOTICE: This policy form has been reviewed by the New Hampshire
Insurance Department. It is supplemental to the federal Tricare program and,
as such, does not meet, nor is it required to meet, the New Hampshire
minimum standards for accident and health insurance.
Submissions will be reviewed for compliance with the above.
Any questions concerning this bulletin should be directed to Maureen Hartsmith, Life
and Health Compliance Manager at the New Hampshire Insurance Department,
telephone (603) 271-2261.
