Health Insurance Exchanges [HIEs]
Brought to you by ACS a Xerox Company
For some Americans, selecting a health insurance plan will soon feel a bit like shopping. As part of healthcare reform, each state is required to have a Health Insurance Exchange (HIE or HIX) in operation by Jan. 1, 2014.
Given the complexity of the topic, we’ve created the attached infographic that visually represents the process Americans will experience when participating. If you’re planning to write about HIXs in the near future – we hope you’ll consider using this graphic to help explain the process to your readers.
Here is additional information on HIXs to support the infographic:
- Q: How will states develop a HIX? A: States can either build their own HIX structure or buy a platform from the federal government.
- Q: Who can participate in a HIX? A: Only individuals without other coverage, individuals from whom coverage is unaffordable or inadequate, or small employers can participate in the exchange in 2014. Large employers can join the exchange in 2017.
- Q: How many people are expected to participate? A: The Exchanges are expected to cover as many as 29 million people by 2019, including five million with employment-based coverage.
