My problem with allowing people to purchase health insurance from across state lines is that, from what I understand, they would be able to skirt state regulations.

Imagine if California had strict health insurance regulation, preventing you from discriminating based on pre-existing conditions, regulations on how much they could charge you, etc etc. But Utah had none of this. Would all the health insurance companies bolt California and head to Utah, where they would have free reign to do whatever they liked? It makes all regulation completely pointless if people can avoid them entirely.

I don't like bumping threads like this, but can anyone address this?
