There has to be a faster way for ill patients ensnared in coverage problems through Nevada Health Link to get help. And one local doctor said he has the answer.
Consider this roster a guide for the state exchange and its contractor, Xerox, whose officials we know want to get this stuff sorted out.
There’ll be no more private vendors for Nevada Health Link. The board of the Silver State Health Insurance Exchange voted Thursday to end its search for a company to replace Xerox, which lost its contract following the health link’s glitch-ridden rollout.
To answer a caller’s question, the state exchange and Medicaid are two different things, and neither affects the other. People who make too much to qualify for Medicaid — that’s more than $16,105 a year for a single and $32,913 for a family of four — have to buy private coverage through the exchange.
