"Pretty much the same California health insurance carriers will sell their products through the Exchange, including Blue Shield which is a non-profit company. There may be some new companies too. We won'r knor exactly for a couple more months."

So far that's disappointing - I'm hoping for some new players that will be set up as true non-profits. Not the blue shield "non-profit" model. When I got insurance quotes from an agent last year, BS was twice as high as anthem for my quote.
