How Insurance will be Purchased/Packaged Public and private exchanges will influence purchasing dynamics • Exchanges are here to stay • Public exchanges will become more functional over time and proper for subsidy eligible consumers • Private exchanges will innovate & flourish • Offer exceptional on-line consumer buying experience (Amazon, Priceline) • Keep employers connected to employees from a benefits perspective • Customize insurance plan offerings based on individual circumstances
