As for ACA
Nearly 13 million people enrolled in ACA plans for 2016
Nearly 13 million people signed up for health insurance ahead of the Jan. 31 deadline for 2016 on the state and federal exchanges, federal health officials said Thursday.
The numbers represent an increase of 4 million new people enrolled in the 38 states using HealthCare.gov. Of the 9.6 million consumers who got coverage through HealthCare.gov, about 42% were new to the exchange in 2016.
Department of Health and Human Services Secretary Sylvia Burwell called the season a success on a press call, saying it "exceeded our expectations."
Burwell highlighted that 2.7 million of the newly insured were 18 to 34, which represented more new young enrollees than last year.
