Answer to Question 1

Answer: Grandfathered plans could lose this status if at least one of the following modifications were made:
 Eliminating all or substantially all benefits to diagnose or treat a particular condition.
 Increase in a percentage cost-sharing requirement (e.g., raising an individual's coinsurance requirement from 20 to 25).
 Increasing a deductible or out-of-pocket maximum by an amount that exceeds medical inflation plus 15 percentage points.
 Increasing a copayment by an amount that exceeds medical inflation plus 15 percentage points (or, if greater, 5 plus medical inflation).
 Decreasing an employer's contribution rate towards the cost of coverage by more than 5 percentage points.
 Imposing annual limits on the dollar value of all benefits below specified amounts.
