Op-ed by Robin Baker in Denver Business Journal. First paragraph: I enjoyed reading reporter Bob Mook’s article, “Off-cycle renewals may skirt health law” in the Aug. 1, 2008, edition. The concerns of health insurers regarding the new law created by HB 1355 were well-represented, as were some of Insurance Commissioner Marcy Morrison’s. There are larger aspects to this issue, however.
