Additionally, Health Tradition will not offer plans under the ACA’s Small Business Health Options Program next year, which provided small group health plans that helped employers subsidize or pay for worker’s premiums.

According to a statement released by the insurer, the reason for pulling out of the marketplace is largely due to the financial risk and uncertainty regarding the ACA’s future.

Health Tradition Health Plan will continue providing commercial insurance.
