July 6 (Reuters) – US President Joe Biden’s administration on Friday is expected to propose a new regulation cracking down on short-term health insurance plans, Politico reported, citing five Democrats with knowledge of the matter.
Biden is due to deliver an announcement on healthcare cost savings on Friday. A White House official told Politico on Thursday that Biden plans to announce major actions to lower costs and crack down on junk fees.
The regulation will curtail a Trump-era expansion of skimpy health coverage, which critics said undermined the 2010 Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare, and its broad protections…

Good morning and welcome to the Weekly New York Health Care newsletter, where we keep you posted on what’s coming up this week in health care news, and offer a look back at the important news from last week.
City and state officials marked the one-year anniversary of the Supreme Court’s decision overturning Roe v. Wade by touting their efforts to strengthen abortion access in New York.

Friday Health Plans of Nevada taken over by state regulators
A district court judge has ordered that a health insurance company that covers 2,805 Nevadans be placed in receivership under the control of the state Division of Insurance.
Day-to-day operations of Friday Health Plans will now be handled by the Division of Insurance. The insurer’s policies are still in effect and the court order, which was issued June 12, prohibits providers from denying health services.
The Division of Insurance first requested receivership for Friday Health Plans on June 1 after it received “inconsistent financial filings” from the company.
Friday Health Plans supported the move for regulators to take over its…

Most people generally give their health insurance a positive grade, but according to a new KFF survey, those who are in poorer health tend to give lower ratings. The sicker they are, the less positively they feel about their coverage.
About 81% of those polled said their health insurance was “excellent” or “good,” but there were discrepancies. Eighty-four percent of people who describe their physical health status as at least “good” rate insurance positively, compared to 68% of people in “fair” or “poor” health.
People on Medicare also tend to rate their insurance more positively (at a…
With no room to raise taxes, where will Adams find the money for his pricey union deals?
Retired city workers are understandably upset the city is changing their health insurance, forcing them into a plan with less flexibility effective September.
But they shouldn’t be surprised: Something had to give.
Our retirees are getting off easy — so far.
Mayor Eric Adams registered the new contract last week with healthcare provider Aetna to start administering the less-generous Medicare contract in the fall, overriding Comptroller Brad Lander’s objections.
Thanks to a higher federal subsidy for the new Advantage plan, as well as stricter rules for specialty visits and the like, the city expects to save $600 million a year.…
