This $236,653.50 Project Grant from the Department of Health and Human Services Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), under the Reduction of Issuer Burden Through Technology Grant Program and the Health Insurance Enforcement and Consumer Protections Grant Program (CFDA 93.881), will fund enhancements to the System for Electronic Rate and Form Filing (SERFF) system. The National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) will build an IT connection between SERFF and the Health Insurance Oversight System (HIOS) to reduce issuer burden by allowing filers to submit the Unified Rate Review Template (URRT) and related materials only once, in SERFF, rather than duplicating filings in both SERFF and HIOS. This project aims to streamline the rate review process for issuers and improve data quality for federal and state regulators by facilitating electronic transmission of URRT data from SERFF to HIOS.

Project in support of the transmission of rate filing justification data from serff to hios - this project will enhance the serff system as requested by the centers for medicare & medicaid services (CMS). The work will reduce burden on issuers that are currently filing the unified rate review template (urrt) and related materials in both serff and the health insurance oversight system (hios). The project will also improve data quality for federal and state regulators reviewing the urrt.
