The subtitle on the Tuesday Review-Journal’s lead article — “Decision will cost 31,496 Nevadans their health coverage” — leaves a misleading impression.

Coverage is available. All those people in the counties with only a single exchange provider that are impacted by Anthem can go out and buy insurance, just not through an Obamacare exchange.
