Health Insurance Exchanges Issuer County Map

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services posted an update to the Health Insurance Exchanges Issuer County Map. This map is of projected issuer participation on the Health Insurance Exchanges in 2018 based on the known issuer public announcements through August 23, 2017. Participation is expected to fluctuate and does not represent actual Exchange application submissions.

 This map currently shows that nationwide 1 county is projected to have no issuers, meaning that Americans in these counties could be without coverage on the Exchanges in 2018. It’s also projected that 1,478 counties - over 45 percent of counties nationwide - could have only one issuer in 2018. This could represent more than 2.6 million Exchange participants with only one health insurance option, which means they will not have any choices.  NOTE:  These maps are subject to change on a weekly basis.
