8. Humana Health Plan of Ohio
   
9. Kaiser Foundation Health Plan of Ohio

This, of course, is an unofficial list as I have modified previously reported information.

Also note that Time Insurance has been very clear about not participating in any exchanges in 2014. Not saying that the entire list is crap, but there is in fact false information within the list. I can't figure out why Assurant would lie about not participating anywhere, so I have to believe them.

The "crappy" list above (with the exception of my Anthem addition) is courtesy of the Ohio Department Of Insurance...

And remember...this is their "intention" only.

I went looking there for it and couldn't find it. In the other thread that this was posted, the link to it went to Zane's blog. Do you have the link to the Ohio DOI page? I couldn't find it.

Buckeye's might find this post to be of interest.

This You Tube video, agent in Ohio, does a pretty good job explaining things. He has a different list of carriers than what's noted below.

Of course, I'm biased, but I like things simple!

My information was from a combination of relevant articles and conversations with unnamed carrier administrators.

I'm not saying that you are full of it, I am just sharing what I have been told and what many others are posting. Time is not participating in 2014. I don't trust carrier reps more than I do anyone else.

Of course. Keep in mind that a carrier "intending" to offer and actually offering products two steps later is a much different thing.

Time in Ohio (for the last 5-8 years) has had awful rates, not that it matters now.

I guess we will have to wait and see. Assurant's official statement is no participation in 2014. Like everything else, I suppose everything is open to change in this.
