I don't believe Florida would opt out but you might see a lot of the

Unfortunately that pool of healthy people will not be there to balance
the coasts in the public company.

Not sure about that since I haven't even seen the bill.
From what I've heard only those without employer based insurance will
be eligible.
I don't know that that pool is any less healthy than the rest.
Besides, another part of the bill is supposed to eliminate the
pre-existing condition cop out for all insurers.
Too early to say much really.
