Blue Cross Blue Shield And Ambetter To Stay In Arizona Through 2018

It appears the two remaining insurance companies offering coverage under the federal health-care exchange in Arizona will stay in the market through at least 2018.

Administrators with Blue Cross Blue Shield Arizona and Centene Corp's Ambetter by Health Net filed their official paperwork with the state Department of Insurance on Monday. 

They have until July 1 to change their minds and pricing information has not been released.

Insurance providers are keeping their eyes on the Trump administration and the Republican-held Congress, which is still deciding on the contents of the Affordable Care Act. 

In 2015, Arizona offered 11 insurance providers.
