Will Obamacare marketplaces suffer as open enrollment begins?
There are two reasons to think this effort would have “not much” of an effect. First, small employers can already become self-insured and buy coverage that limits their risk beyond a certain dollar amount, or what is called stop-loss coverage. They can therefore rather easily become exempt from state insurance regulations. The second reason to expect “not much” impact is that modern insurance requires networks of hospital, physician and drugstore networks.

A better approach to regulating provider network adequacy
Health care reforms, including those put in place by the Affordable Care Act, are making insurers more competitive. However, in their effort to lower costs, health insurers more often are selling health plans that cover fewer hospitals, and many fewer physicians. This narrowing of provider networks is a sign that market reforms may be improving consumer value, but network narrowing also raises a number of concerns.
Warts and all, Obamacare could win a popularity contest that matters
