Federal health care reform will impact nearly everyone in our state. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act will change how health care is purchased and provided.

One of my responsibilities as insurance commissioner is to advocate for Washington consumers and help you get the information you need to make insurance decisions.

This guide is designed to help you understand your appeal rights under current law, determine what new rights you’ll gain under the Affordable Care Act, and learn where to go for more information.

If you have any questions about the guide or an insurance issue, please call our Insurance Consumer Hotline toll-free at 1-800-562-6900 or e-mail me.

We’re here to help you.

Sincerely,

Mike Kreidler
Washington State Insurance Commissioner
