New Hampshire Individual Health Plan Benefit Association
Public records raise at least one point you should look into before giving.
What it says it does
See Schedule O The Association was created pursuant to the order of the New Hampshire Insurance Commissioner with the purpose of supporting the State's individual health plan programs. The primary purpose of the Association is to protect the residents of New Hampshire who participate in the individual health insurance market by providing a mechanism to equitably distribute the excess risk associated with this market.

- $22.9 million spent. The Association collects assessments from its members on behalf of the State of New Hampshire to support its current Medicaid Expansion Program, known as the Granite Advantage Health Care Program. The funds are then used by the State as required by statute to support the State's expansion of Medicaid services to a broader segment of the underserved population in New Hampshire.
- $42.6 million spent. The Association collects assessments from its members on behalf of the State of New Hampshire to support its New Hampshire Reinsurance Program, which was established as a mechanism to equitably distribute the excess risk associated with the individual health insurance market and to support the affordability and accessibility of health insurance in New Hampshire's individual health insurance market. The reinsurance program reimburses health plan issuers who offer comprehensive, major medical plans in New Hampshire's individual market that are part of a single-risk pool based on a percentage of annual claims that issuers incur for coverage under such plans.
