Minnesota Exchange Documents

Exchanges are Key to Obamacare:

"The ACA cannot be implemented without an insurance exchange in each state. It's a go or it's a no-go. It's that simple." - As Robert Laszewski, president of Health Policy and Strategy Associates, Sept 2012, HealthDay.

"The exchange is the foundation of health care...Without these exchanges we're really not going to reform anything." - Terry Gardiner, national policy director for the Small Business Majority in 2010.

"Public exchanges will create an irreversible shift in the insurance market that will ultimately change the way medical care is sold in the US." - PwC's Oct 2012 report, "Health Insurance Exchanges: Long on options, short on time."
