Most Americans derive their health insurance coverage through plans sponsored by employers, either public or private. States have the power to regulate the conduct of state-licensed health insurers. However, under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA), 2 state insurance regulations do not apply to self-insured employee health benefit plans. In addition, states vary significantly in the extent to which they regulate insurer practices in both the individual and group markets, with many states providing limited or no protection against genetic discrimination under state-regulated products.
