West Virginia Senate approves state health exchange bill
West Virginia Senate approved a bill 27 to 6 to create a state run health insurance exchange to comply with the federal overhaul. The measure advances to the House of Delegates as critics warn of potential fallout if federal provisions are overturned. Private insurers would offer coverage options within the marketplace aiming to boost buying power for individuals and small businesses. The vote reflected GOP opposition to the federal approach and concerns about future legal changes. State officials advocate a state run exchange over a federally managed one.
