This question is directed principally to WA state residents, but may apply in other states that have expanded Medicaid.
For calendar year 2016, I used a health insurance broker to assist with my health exchange application. Though my income seemed to straddle the threshold between Medicaid (Apple health in WA state), and several possible ACA exchange plans, the broker advised me to avoid Medicaid as my options for doctors and various associated medical services would be very limited under Medicaid. I ended up on Silver plan from Grouphealth.
I have since met one person on Apple Health who is quite pleased with it. Since this somewhat conflicts with the my broker's advice, I'm writing to see what other people's experiences have been on Apple Health or on comparable Medicaid plans in states that have Medicaid expansion.
