A federal court has decisively struck down a Missouri law requiring navigators and other consumer assisters to be licensed and pay a fee. Our Georgetown University Center for Children and Families colleague, Tricia Brooks, takes a look at the ruling and what it might mean for navigator laws in other states.
Seventeen states have enacted rules for health insurance marketplace navigators that could hinder their ability to provide consumer assistance. In a blog series published by the Commonwealth Fund, CHIR experts Justin Giovannelli, Kevin Lucia and Sarah Dash take a closer look at these laws and their impact on outreach and enrollment.
