Holcomb Statement on Anthem and MDwise Leaving Obamacare Marketplace

1

INDIANAPOLIS — Governor Eric J. Holcomb offered the following statement regarding Anthem and MDwise plans to leave the Obamacare marketplace in Indiana:

“We’ve been informed that Anthem and MDwise plan to leave the Obamacare marketplace in Indiana. Hoosiers served by these providers under the federal marketplace will keep their coverage through the end of the year, and this action does not apply to those who are insured through their employers or are members of HIP 2.0, Medicaid or Medicare.

“We’ll know the full extent of the issues with the Obamacare marketplace tomorrow when all provider rates are published, but this is more evidence that the current federal system isn’t working. Indiana is one of many states where Obamacare is failing to provide citizens options to affordable, quality healthcare.

“This underscores the need for reform, and Indiana is poised to lead the way if given the flexibility and time to tailor the best solutions.”
