HealthSherpa Unveils Innovative Policy Status API for ICHRA

HealthSherpa's Groundbreaking Policy Status API

The latest API provides unprecedented insights into ACA policy status for ICHRA platforms, enhancing compliance and enabling growth.

HealthSherpa, a pioneer in the ICHRA space, has officially introduced its Policy Status API, unique in its ability to monitor individual ACA policy statuses effectively.

As the trend of Individual Coverage Health Reimbursement Arrangements (ICHRAs) continues to grow in popularity among businesses, ICHRA platforms face increasingly complex operational challenges. A significant issue has been the ability to track the status of individual policies—whether they are active, canceled, or terminated—across diverse exchanges and insurance networks.

Enhancing Compliance and Reducing Risk

With the introduction of the new API, HealthSherpa aims to alleviate these challenges by providing real-time updates regarding a member's policy. This functionality allows ICHRA platforms to:

Streamline Enrollment Processes

Automatically confirm enrollments without requiring staff to log into brokers' portals. This feature accelerates the onboarding process and minimizes administrative tasks.

Identify Issues Early

The system can detect cancellations and terminations before they lead to compliance risks, thereby protecting employers and their employees from unexpected issues.

Eliminate Attestation Needs

By automating policy status checks, there’s no longer a need for monthly employee attestations, simplifying the compliance landscape for ICHRA platforms.

As Richard Perrin, Chief Technology Officer at Remodel Health, remarked, "This API represents a pivotal shift, enabling us to scale operations more efficiently and maintain client compliance while enhancing the experience for employees."

Expanding the ICHRA Ecosystem

The launch of the Policy Status API enriches the existing ICHRA: Powered by HealthSherpa API library, designed to facilitate seamless integration and scalability of ICHRA offerings through a cohesive technological framework.

CEO George Kalogeropoulos noted, "For too long, tracking policy statuses has been a manual and fraught process. This API was created to instill confidence in ICHRA platforms and provide clear insights necessary for expansion."

Importantly, the Policy Status API is currently available at no cost to all ICHRA platforms, ensuring easy access to this vital tool for all stakeholders involved.
