Insurance Exchanges

This legislative toolkit will assist with the design of health insurance exchanges.

Aon Hewitt surveyed 344 companies representing 2.2 million retirees from May through November 2010 for its report, Employer Reaction to Health Care Reform: Retiree Strategy Survey.

The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) has several provisions that hope to mitigate the rapidly rising tide of uninsured young adults. Young adults happen to be one of the largest uninsured segments of the United States population.

The ACA allows two or more states to come together and create a health insurance exchange. This brief examines why states might consider a multi-state exchange and the issues surrounding doing so.

Enrolless in the state health benefit exchanges are likely to be older, less educated, more racially diverse, and less healthy than people with insurance outside the exchanges, according to a study by the Kaiser Family Foundation.
