States are given the flexibility under section 122(b) to revise their regulations of the health insurance marketplace, without regard to many of the requirements imposed under PPACA, in order to promote freedom of choice of affordable health insurance coverage options offered outside of an Exchange. Nothing in the Employee Retirement and Income Security Act of 1974 ( 29 U.S.C. 1001 et seq.) or of any amendments made by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 ( Public Law 104–191 ) shall be interpreted as preventing an employer from offering, or making an employer contribution towards, individual health insurance coverage for employees and dependent family members.
Nothing in this Act shall be construed as prohibiting the formation of association health plans (as defined under State law). Nothing in this Act shall be construed as prohibiting States from establishing pooling arrangements for high-risk individuals.
