New Quick Reference Chart on State Health Insurance Exchange Decisions Added

Author: Tracy Morley, XpertHR Legal Editor

The Affordable Care Act requires every state and the District of Columbia to establish a health insurance exchange, a marketplace that offers an organized and competitive means for buying health insurance. States that do not establish an exchange will default to a federally facilitated exchange operated by the US Department of Health and Human Services.

XpertHR has added a quick reference chart to its Health Care Reform Resource Center. This chart identifies state decisions for creating health care exchanges.
