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. Ohio follows the federal requirements. The law indicates that no chronic disease or chronic physical condition may be excluded from the coverage of a policy of sickness insurance or from the sickness insurance coverage of a policy of sickness and accident insurance except by name or specific description.
