Welcome to the California Health Benefits Review Program
Funded by an annual assessment of health plans and insurers in California, CHBRP is an impartial organization tasked with evaluating the medical effectiveness, cost impact, and public health impact of bills related to health insurance benefits. We provide analyses of proposed mandates and repeals to California's State Legislature, so that they have all of the scientific evidence required to make informed decisions.
