Actually reading the story produces this simple fact: The waiver allows these employees to KEEP their coverage. What it exempts the companies from is a provision in the law that would set minimum amounts of coverage and percentage of premium attached to actual care. Those provisions are not aligned with the way these "mini-plans" work, so to allow these employees to keep the coverage they have, the waivers were granted.

Wow, the Utah school system didn't do you any favors in the reading comprehension department, did they?
