California Has Already Topped Its Obamacare Enrollment Goals
California Has Already Topped Its Obamacare Enrollment Goals
California has signed up more than 825,000 people in Obamacare coverage, the state reported Wednesday, topping its total enrollment goals with six weeks to go in the open enrollment period.
About 728,000 people had enrolled by the end of January, according to the state's Obamacare marketplace, and more than 100,000 additional people have signed up in the first two weeks of February.
According to a September presentation, California was expecting a little less than 700,000 enrollments by March 31.
“These enrollment numbers mean that with six weeks to go, California has already exceeded its projected base enrollment for the 2014 open-enrollment period," Covered California Executive Director Peter Lee said in a statement. "While this is a strong showing, our goal is not pinned to meeting projections, but to making sure every Californian gets covered."
