WASHINGTON—The chairman of the Independent Insurance Agents & Brokers of America says the association has not abandoned the fight to protect independent agents' role under federal healthcare reform.
Speaking here Friday at the conclusion of the IIABA's Legislative Conference and Convention, Chairman Bob Bramlett says the topic of healthcare was not at the top of agenda because, “As much as we would like to change it, PPACA (Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act) is the law of the land, and it has moved from the legislative to the regulatory phase.”
He says important issues remain and the focus of IIABA is on implementation of the program and assisting in that effort to protect producers.
