Abstract

This paper analyzes the legal issues associated with the leading and much-debated proposals that aim to revitalize state regulatory competition and allow individuals to purchase insurance across state lines (PASL). These proposals seek to reverse decades-old principles of state preeminence in the regulation of individual health insurance and instead create “jurisdictional competition” in the individual market by allowing an insurer to choose the state under whose law it wishes to be regulated, subject to certain consumer protections. Advocates say this type of jurisdictional competition would reform perceived problems in the individual market and lower the costs of individual health insurance by imposing the regulatory authority of only the insurer’s selected “home” state.
