Speaking of fully enrolled, when will the Obama regime finally tell us how many people have actually paid for their first month’s premium (aka fully enrolled)?
DOVER, Del. (AP) — Fewer than 1,000 Delaware residents have enrolled in the state’s new health insurance exchange under the federal health care reform law, but officials said Monday that the enrollment process is improving as a key deadline approaches.
Delaware Health and Social Services Secretary Rita Landgraf told the state health care commission that 793 Delawareans had chosen an insurance plan under the federal Affordable Care Act as of Dec. 12 and had paid the first month’s premium. The announcement marks the first time officials have said how many Delawareans have actually paid for coverage under the ACA.
Last week, federal officials reported 431 enrollees in Delaware as of Nov. 30. That figure included people who had not paid their first premiums.
Landgraf said the new enrollment number reflects “positive momentum.” Nevertheless, the number of enrollees still represents less than 2.5 percent of the 35,000 Delawareans that officials have said they hope to enroll.
