Coventry Health Care to Run Nebraska Health Insurance Pool

December 29, 2011

Coventry Health Care of Nebraska will be the new health plan administrator for Nebraska’s Comprehensive Health Insurance Pool.

The state program is designed to provide health insurance for Nebraskans who can’t get affordable coverage without restrictions because of medical problems.

Coventry Health Care of Nebraska is a wholly owned subsidiary of Coventry Health Care Inc., a national managed-care company.

The Lincoln Journal Star says the Health Insurance Pool board of directors selected Coventry as health plan administrator at a recent meeting.

Coventry will administer benefits for the program starting April 1. The benefits currently are administered by Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Nebraska.
