Milestone: Develop an implementation plan and timeline for building an Exchange that will be operational on or before January 1, 2014
An implementation plan and timeline are essential for meeting federal benchmarks, including the required January 2013 HHS Secretary assessment of state progress. A plan and timeline also are helpful tools for informing and engaging key state stakeholders.
*Milestone details:
*Full name: Develop an implementation plan and timeline for building an Exchange that will be operational on or before January 1, 2014.
*Relevance to the ACA:
The ACA gives the Secretary of HHS the authority to assess states progress toward establishing an Exchange and to establish and operate an Exchange in a state, if necessary. Sections relevant to developing an implementation plan and timeline include:
§1321 - Requires the Secretary of HHS to set federal standards for Exchanges. Gives the Secretary the authority to establish an Exchange in a state if by January 1, 2013 the state has not taken the actions necessary to operate an Exchange by January 1, 2014.
