The AIS Data Team wants to alert you that we will be posting first-quarter 2019 updates to your subscriber dashboard in late June. We’ll be removing current in-app downloads, so be sure to download any fourth-quarter 2018 data before it is replaced with the latest updates.

When the new data is posted, it will primarily reflect first-quarter 2019 status, including new commercial market entrants. Researchers are uncovering many shifts and changes in the health insurance industry, from market and sector exits to expansions. We will alert you later this month when the new data is posted.
