Be careful what you ask for, you just might get it. Have a look at this non-profit, that’s now in receivership:

Sure. Happened Cal. BCBS also. Deliberate get your $ and run.

State oversight, protections for whistleblowers should help. Lots better than for profits.

Obama’s health insurance regulators used the ACA as the basis for setting tight restrictions on CO-OP funding and operations. A CO-OP, for example, could not be owned, or partly owned, by any existing health insurer, and its member owners could never sell the CO-OP. The sale restriction made using a CO-OP’s assets as loan collateral impossible.

From a news article discussing the failure of many of the CO-OP insurance groups, like the ones Trump is attempting to expand.

Obama and the Democrats WANTED these types of insurance providers to fail, so that their customers would be FORCED onto the Obamacare roles - that bumps the Obamacare role numbers, and removes competition for the Obamacare mandated, state-controlled insurance plans.

If Trump and his Administration loosens the DEATH-GRIP that was wrought by the Obama Admin, then I think these CO-OPs can work.
