Most states will not escape this Exchange network shuffle unscathed. It appears Texas provider networks are NOT all going to be the same for Exchange vs non-Exchange Plans for same carrier (e.g. Texas Oncology, a major cancer group, NOT joining any Exchange Plans).

I heard something on the national news that indicated Emory Health Care (Associated with Emory University) in Atlanta was not accepting some exchange plans. When I investigated further I found the following list -

There are probably many non-exchange plans they don't accept too. Based on this single data point it makes me wonder what the significant factors are in the "Nationwide" exchange plans. I see Emory accepts several Humana nationwide plans. Figuring out provider networks was always a struggle during open enrollment at mega-corp. It's no easier now that I'm FIREd.
