Washington, DC (PRWEB) October 10, 2016
Dozens of health insurers have said they are exiting the public health insurance exchanges for the 2017 benefit year, according to data from Atlantic Information Services, Inc.’s (AIS) Health Insurance Exchange Database (PBX). Carriers say several factors are leading to departures, among them: most insurers are not making money in the marketplaces because their enrollees are sicker and more costly than they expected, enrollees enter the system only long enough to get needed care, and the protections built into the Affordable Care Act to stem deep carrier losses have failed.

The table is updated regularly and can be downloaded as an Excel file.
AIS’s Health Insurance Exchange Database is a comprehensive online database tracking insurer participation, premium rates and exchange enrollment on the public health insurance exchange marketplace. It offers a convenient, user-friendly online search tool and downloadable spreadsheets to provide detailed premium rates data that can be easily ranked, averaged and sorted by rating area and age (where applicable), insurer, state, metal level and plan type. SHOP premiums are provided for all four quarters of the 2017 plan year.
