State legislators are discussing the sale of Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Louisiana to Indiana-based Elevance Health.
The legislature's meeting on Monday morning had no voting power prior to the deal's official hearing on February 14.
Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Louisiana first proposed the deal a year ago.
The two insurance companies need state approval to close the deal, along with the approval of two-thirds of Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Louisiana members.
