Summary of differences between federal and state regulations
Federal HIPAA portability provisions limit exclusions for preexisting conditions; prohibit discrimination against employees and dependents based on their health status; and allow a special opportunity to enroll in a new plan to individuals in certain circumstances.
States are allowed to go beyond the federal requirements. Maine’s requirements mirror those of federal.
