Deadline Nears for HealthCare.gov Enrollments

Today is the day to enroll in a HealthCare.gov plan, if you want coverage in the new year.

FOX News Radio’s Jared Halpern has more from the White House.

The second year of open enrollment — the President says, is going much better than the first…

(President Obama) ”We had a bumpy roll out. The website wasn’t working. It’s working flawlessly now.”

President Obama calling in to ESPN Radio’s “The Herd with Colin Cowherd” — part of a series of radio show call-ins to encourage young Americans to get coverage… by today’s deadline.

(President Obama) “For an average of about 82-bucks a month, you can get high quality health care coverage.” 

The Congressional Budget Office expects as many as 13-million people to have a health plan through government exchanges next year, a figure the Obama administration has stressed may not be met.
