California Insurance exchange

The legislature has approved two bills that would establish a statewide health insurance exchange to comply with the federal health care reform law. One bill would set up the state's insurance exchange to help consumers compare information about insurers before choosing a health plan. Insurance carriers are concerned that provisions may have serious impacts on consumer choice. Our agency is concerned that federal mandates will limit choice and force some insurance companies out of the health insurance marketplace in Costa Mesa, California and Newport beach, California
