The local daily rag here actually did a good story on the two largest health insurers in town.
Highmark leapt into Obamacare whole-hog. Ran around opening health insurance kiosks in malls, and trying to sign up everyone. When it gets repealed they are gonna get SCROOOOOOOD! Because, in the end, Sarah Palin was right. People will sign-up when they get sick because you’ll have to take them.
UPMC on the other hand had their actuaries look at the law, and decided there were too many unknowns to take that leap. They held back on enrollments and are now looking like prescient geniuses.
