AETNA will complete its withdrawal from Affordable Care Act (ACA) insurance exchanges in 2018, announcing on Wednesday that lingering financial losses and uncertainty about the marketplaces' future were prompting it to exit two final states.
According to an Aetna spokesman, the insurer will not sell individual health plans next year in Delaware and Nebraska. Its announcement came a week after the company said it would stop offering ACA health plans in Virginia in 2018 and a month after, it said it would leave Iowa.
