It's one of the biggest insurers in the state, the UT system uses them exclusively. Blue Cross is offering some really good plans on the exchange, they're not subpar or inferior, they're regular insurance plans just like everyone else gets. But whatever, Texas Oncology can do whatever they want, hope they don't let the door hit them in the ass on their way out of business.
The horror story lines are getting to the point where the bullshit is not only being polished, it's being served up as steak tartar. The amount of ignorance about the ACA and the exchanges is staggering, most low-income people are scared to freakin' death that they're going to have to pay $250 a month for insurance even if they're just making $1400 a month.
All these people don't have a clue how cheap they can get a policy for or think they'll have to take their employer's (often overpriced) policy. And I don't think the Republicans are doing this unaided, I really think businesses see an opportunity here to screw their employers over even more, they certainly aren't telling them they should go look on the exchange, or if they do they'll just pocket the money they used to be contributing to when they had their old policies. Kudos to Trader Joe's and a few others for having some integrity.
