I see a policy claim mixed with fact claim to get the ball rolling. They have taken a look at this area to see why none of the estimated 6,000 residents in this mostly middle class county have not signed up for the exchange under the Affordable Care Act. This area is a famous destination for skiing and tourism. Warranting the insurance rates for this area are not a level playing field and many have taken a look at the prices of the plans available for them and have instantly walked away. Grounds of rates are averaging about double for this one county vs other parts of the state. Policy push is for a start with holding town meetings. Suggestions are being made to take note of actual residents to not be lumped in with the expensive resort areas and guests and redo rates starting for the year 2015.
