HBE User Fee
Insurance carriers participating in the Virginia Health Benefit Exchange (HBE) are required to pay a monthly HBE User Fee to the Virginia Health Benefit Exchange. User Fee payments will remain through the BOI Portal through approximately March 2024. User Fees due for 2024 coverage and beyond will be made through your carrier account on the Carrier Portal. See HBE-2023-00001 – User Fee Assessment Order – issued June 20, 2023, for fees due 2024 and beyond.
Verify that you are paying an HBE User Fee invoice before submitting payment. Appointment Billing invoices may also appear in the portal.
