The Vermont Department of Banking, Insurance, Securities & Health Care Administration (BISHCA) is now the Vermont Department of Financial Regulation.The change was included in legislation signed yesterday by Governor Shumlin; the new name will reflect the departmentâ s evolving mission.
â Last year Act 48 moved much of BISHCAâ s oversight of health insurance and hospital budgets to the Green Mountain Care Board,’said Commissioner Steve Kimbell. â Our department is more streamlined and more focused on financial oversight, so the new name makes sense.â
The Department of Financial Regulation website will replace the BISHCA site but will continue to be accessible by searching for â BISHCA.â The phone numbers and email addresses of agency employees are unchanged.
â Weâ re going to miss our old name,’Kimbell added. â All of it.â
