"It is apparent that [Anthem Inc.'s acquisition of Cigna Corp.]

...will result in minimal shared local markets, both geographically and by product segment. At Anthem, we look at the provision of small group as insurance plans for small employers with 2-50 employees; we have a presence in this segment in 14 states. Cigna does not market to this group. Likewise for purchase of individual plans...Anthem, again, has a presence in 14 states. Cigna has a presence in 12 states. The combined company would only share a limited number of rating regions within just five states, where there is now and will continue to be robust competition."

— Anthem, Inc.'s CEO Joseph Swedish said in written testimony before a Senate Judiciary Committee panel on Sept. 22.
