IMPORTANT NOTICE:
Insurance policies providing certain health insurance coverage issued or renewed on or after September 23, 2010 are required to comply with all applicable requirements of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA). However, there are a number of insurance coverages that are specifically exempt from the requirements of PPACA (See $ 2791 of the Public Health Services Act). AXIS maintains that the Limited Accident and Sickness Plan presented In this brochure Is "fixed Indemnity insurance", and is therefore, exempt from the requirements of PPACA.
