health Insurance company told to stop business in WA

SEATTLE POST-INTELLIGENCER STAFF



TUMWATER -- The state Insurance Commissioner's Office said yesterday that it has ordered a health insurance company with about 37,000 Washington policyholders to stop selling plans in this state.



Officials said the plans sold by Mega Life and Health Insurance Co. of Oklahoma violate Washington law. Mega could not be reached for comment last night.



According to the Insurance Commissioner's Office, most of Mega's policies do not include benefits mandated by state law. Also, the company has failed to file required paperwork, the agency said.



Policyholders with questions can contact the Insurance Commissioner's Office at 800-562-6900.
