Are you 1 of about 14 million Americans that have an 'individual policy' that could be potentially affected by this? Read the full LA Times article, "California fines two health plans $13 million."
In California, some folks carrying individual health insurance coverage had their policies terminated by health insurers after they became ill. As a result, some people landed in situations where they lost their homes and businesses. California state authorities are watching for abusive practices and have stepped in over time to smooth things over. The good thing is now everyone is watching. Health insurers will need to be more careful, and people with coverage who become sick have hope that their coverage won't be unfairly canceled.
