Rancho Cordova’s Vision Service Plan has a top government ally in its corner in its fight with a state agency over a new insurance program. Insurance Commissioner Dave Jones is urging the California Health Benefit Exchange to change the rules in VSP’s favor. The ruckus is over who gets to sell coverage through the exchange. In August, the exchange said stand-alone vision insurers – like VSP and Superior Vision – could sell to small businesses but not individuals. Individuals represent the biggest piece of the market. In protest, VSP put off hiring 150 workers. The 2,100-employee company also threatened to leave the area according to a recent report in the Sacramento Bee.
