West Virginia Amends Health Care Provider Tax for Managed Care Organizations

The West Virginia Governor signed a law that amends §11-27-10a of the state code, to restructure the health care provider tax on managed care organizations, transitioning from a tiered member-month method, to a 2.5 percent gross premium assessment method for certified health maintenance organizations. The law includes exemptions for Medicare Advantage plans, West Virginia Public Employees Insurance Agency plans, and plans issued under the Federal Employees Health Benefits Act to the extent preempted by federal law. [H.B. 5459, enacted 03/27/26]
