The Independent Association of Businesses on Aug. 17 announced the creation of a national private health care exchange, which it said will offer small business owners and the self employed greater options to obtain affordable health care and medical benefits. “The exposure through a national collective exchange will offer even greater assistance to the over 35 million small business professionals who effectively can utilize this service,” the organization said.
It said the exchange “offers multiple providers and additional health care and medical solutions that are not designed with the [Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act] state and federal based exchanges.” An IAB committee recommended forming the exchange “based on participating state by state licensed insurance companies.”
