HEALTH INSURANCE PORTABILITY AND ACCOUNTABILITY ACT OF 1996

Duplicate PHI has provided financing for capacity development in the private hospital sector in some countries, thereby helping to alleviating consumer inconvenience generated by non-price rationing in public hospitals. Only a few OECD countries have both long waiting times and high levels of population covered by PHI. Australia has especially emphasised the role private cover plays as the main mechanism for shifting demand away from overburdened public hospitals, while Ireland has instead placed more emphasis on the role of the public system in addressing waiting concerns. Cross-country comparisons of levels of waiting for elective surgery suggest longer waiting times in Ireland than in Australia, despite similar levels. | PUBLIC LAW 104-191 AUG. 21 1996 HEALTH INSURANCE PORTABILITY AND ACCOUNTABILITY ACT OF 1996 110 STAT. 1936 PUBLIC LAW 104-191 AUG. 21 1996 Public Law 104-191 104th Congress An Act To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to improve portability and continuity of health insurance coverage in the group and individual markets to combat Aug. 21 1996 waste fraud and abuse in health insurance and health care delivery to promote H R 3103 the use of medical savings accounts to improve access to long-term care services and coverage to simplify the administration of health insurance and for other purposes.
