.... in a way that I did not see coming.

I live in a lesser populous county. There are zero,NO plans here that meet our needs in terms of who/what is in the network. If you live 50 miles away in a more populated county, there are plans that do.

But when you see large insurers abandoning the plan you know things are not good. I'm afraid that United Healthcare is just the beginning but time will tell.

In any event, I was moderately in favor of the ACA but it is not really working out as far as I can tell.
