Mississippi Insurance Commissioner’s ACA plan

After suffering through a high-profile intraparty squabble with the governor and averting a near disaster for the state’s insurance marketplace, Mississippi Insurance Commissioner Mike Chaney is giving another go at running an Obamacare exchange.

This time, the Republican commissioner is looking to run just the state’s exchange for small businesses while letting the feds oversee the new insurance marketplace for individuals — an option the Department of Health and Human Services only recently made available to states reluctant to do the entire lift.
