UnitedHealthcare will not be offering coverage in the exchange (but it will be available for small group plans). Currently, 13% of those enrolled in Louisiana have UnitedHealthcare, so this will be a large swing in coverage to another carrier. This is particularly concerning because UnitedHealthcare offered one of the lower priced options in the state. Humana does have plans to stay in Louisiana for 2017 but they have exited a handful of other states recently, which means they may leave in 2018.
