State To Target Fraudulent Discount Health Plans
The California Department of Managed Health Care has seen an increase in the number of complaints regarding discount health plans in the last month and is working "diligently to shut down fraudulent" plans, according to DMHC Director Cindy Ehnes. She added, "We will soon be proposing new regulations to license companies, imposing strict consumer protections for those wishing to operate in California."
