- 14,808
The total? Just over 18,000 enrolled. The Obama administration, prior to creating this plan touted that 25 million people do not have coverage due to pre-existing conditions.
State by State Enrollment in the Pre-Existing Condition Insurance Plan, as of March 31, 2011 | HealthCare.gov
25 million without coverage
18,000 enrolled.
Seems to be a bit of a gap. Obama said this would provide immediate coverage to over 300,000 people. 300,000 to 18,000 - seems to be a bit of a gap.
With 8 full months running, if you do the math 75 people per day, or 1.5 per state per day, sign up for the program.
In my state, a whopping 298 have enrolled. Estimate are that 720,000 in MD are uninsured. Now, since "the poor" have free health care in MD through a variety of programs such as MCHIP and Medicaid I'm only left to assume what we all knew was true to start with; that around 95% of everyone in the country without coverage doesn't want it. Not because they can't get it.
The Obama administration's official statement is that "enrollment is lackluster."
