The number of Americans without health insurance declined by 10.3 million because of Obamacare enrollment, according to a report from the Department of Health and Human Services and the Harvard School of Public Health, published in The New England Journal of Medicine on Wednesday.
That represents a reduction in the uninsured rate for adults aged 18 to 64 from 21 percent last September to 16.3 percent this April, the HHS analysis concludes. The lower rate remained stable through June. The first open enrollment period under Obamacare began Oct. 1, 2013, and officially ended March 31, 2014.
The adult uninsured rate has declined across all ages, racial and ethnic groups, and among men and women, according to HHS. The report is based on previously reported Gallup survey data and a comparison to health insurance exchange enrollment numbers compiled by HHS.

My husband saw them when they were in the church parking lot....he wanted to stop to ask them what was going on but he didn't
ReplyDeleteYeah right... this is more Obama B.S. like the unemployment rate steadily going down yet there are FAR less people in the work force.
ReplyDeleteHe's a joke. A fraud. A careless poser, as are those that support him and his totalitarian regime.
Not only are the numbers probably wrong. How many are US citizens and how many are illegals sucking up our tax dollars.
ReplyDeleteThis number means nothing until it is broken down into how many of these people are actually enrolled in the private insurance via obamacare (as opposed to Medicaid) and how many are the 18-26 yr olds that are now still allowed to be on parents insurance.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately democrats will applaud this number because they lack any thinking skills whatsoever.
How many have paid the premium?
ReplyDeleteJust more official bull.
ReplyDeleteI don't believe anything this administration's agencies say.., NOTHING! Not a single word.
