Listen "Episode 96: Patrick Tigue on Rhode Island's Regulatory Strategy to Contain Health Care Costs"
Episode Synopsis
Suzanne calls Patrick Tigue, the Health Insurance Commissioner for the State of Rhode Island, to discuss the Office of the Health Insurance Commissioner (OHIC)'s initiatives to stem health care cost growth in RI.
Rhode Island has established a cost growth benchmarking process to bring greater transparency to the market. They've also created a first-in-the-nation initiative that caps annual growth in prices paid by commercial health plans. Patrick and Suzanne chat about the impacts these programs have had on the market, and what may be ahead for Rhode Island and other states that follow its lead.
