Confirmed this morning. Anthem Blue Cross will not be participating in the CA SHOP small group exchange.

I guess Dave Jones got his wish.
 
Since there's few biz's that qualify for subsidies, All carriers should pull out and directly compete with the shop exchange full of newbies, they'll be gone in 1-2 yrs.

Instead, Anthem said it will keep selling coverage to small firms outside the exchange in direct competition with the state-run market.

The insurer said the recommendation by Jones had no bearing on its decision.
 
Direct to business and through CalChoice Exchange. Advantage of CalChoice is that an employer can offer multi-tier options whereas SHOP single tier only option.
