Background
Health insurance exchanges were established as a part of the 2010 Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act to enable individuals to purchase health insurance in state-run marketplaces. In this legislation, states could choose to establish their own health insurance exchanges; if they choose not to do so, the federal government would run one for the state.
Small business
On October 27, 2014, the Illinois online small business marketplace (SHOP) was launched. This exchange facilitates the use of Small Business Health Care tax credits.
