Health insurance marketplace
In the United States, health insurance marketplaces,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=What is the Health Insurance Marketplace? )〕 also called health exchanges, are organizations set up to facilitate the purchase of health insurance in each state in accordance with Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA, known colloquially as "Obamacare"). Marketplaces provide a set of government-regulated and standardized health care plans from which individuals may purchase health insurance policies eligible for federal subsidies.
All ACA health exchanges were to be fully certified and operational by January 1, 2014, under federal law. Enrollment in the marketplaces started on October 1, 2013, and continued for six months. As of April 19, 2014, 8.02 million people had signed up through the health insurance marketplaces. An additional 4.8 million joined Medicaid. Enrollment for 2015 began November 15, 2014 and ended December 15, 2014.〔http://markets.cbsnews.com/Higher-bar-for-health-law-in-2nd-sign-up-season/0541af3455712d82/〕
Private non-ACA health care exchanges also exist in many states, responsible for enrolling 3 million people. These exchanges predate the Affordable Care Act and facilitate insurance plans for employees of small and medium size businesses.
==Background==
Health insurance exchanges in the United States are intended to help insurers comply with consumer protection laws, compete in cost-efficient ways, and expand insurance coverage to more people. Exchanges are not themselves insurers, so they do not bear risk themselves, but they do determine the insurance companies that are allowed to participate. An ideal exchange promotes insurance transparency and accountability, facilitates increased enrollment and delivery of subsidies, and helps spread risk to ensure that the costs associated with expensive medical treatments are shared more broadly across large groups of people, rather than spread across just a few beneficiaries. The Health Insurance Exchanges will use EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) to transmit required information between the Exchanges and Carriers (trading partners), in particular the 834 transaction for enrollment information and the 820 for premium payment〔(Take advantage of the emerging market place of the Health Benefit Exchanges of October 16 2014 ) - ''hipaasuite''〕
