Reports of Obamacare's Demise Are Greatly Exaggerated
JAMA Forum Link to more items from this source
[Opinion]
Apr. 28, 2016

"UnitedHealthcare was initially cautious in its participation in the ACA marketplaces, but became more aggressive recently, offering coverage in 34 states in 2016. However, the company's plans were often not competitively priced, with UnitedHealthcare offering 1 of the 2 lowest premium plans in only 35% of the counties where it participated ... The company's inability to compete on price may be because its historical strength has been in the employer-based health insurance market, which values broad networks of doctors and hospitals. In the ACA marketplaces, narrower networks have been a primary way in which insurers keep costs and premiums low."
