A big insurer is expecting to see strong growth at the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act public exchange system in 2015.
Stephen Hemsley, the chief executive officer of UnitedHealth Group Inc. -- a company that is selling qualified health plans through only a few PPACA exchanges this year -- said today during a conference call with securities analysts that the company will sell QHPs through "nearly two dozen state exchanges in 2015," up from four this year.
Another executive, Gail Boudreaux, head of the company's UnitedHealthcare health insurance unit, made a point of talking about the company's hopes for the PPACA exchange system.
