Abstract
The Hilltop Institute co-sponsored an AARP Solutions Forum entitled Launching Insurance Exchanges: What Are States Doing? on April 4, 2011, in Washington, DC. The forum explored the variety of ways states are moving ahead with plans for the launch of state insurance exchanges as part of the Affordable Care Act. Hilltop’s former Executive Director Chuck Milligan gave an overview of key issues: structuring governance and oversight; avoiding adverse risk selection; determining plan selection/participation; integration with public programs and private market; helping individuals and employers navigate; protecting the public (transparency and rewarding and improving quality of care); and funding of exchanges.
