HealthCare.gov Sign-Ups Rise in Most States
Over 8.2 million people selected or were automatically reenrolled in health plans for 2021 on HealthCare.gov as of the Dec. 15 deadline, which was just shy of the 8.3 million sign-ups for the 2020 plan year, according to CMS. However, year-over-year comparisons are imperfect because Pennsylvania and New Jersey transitioned to their own state-based exchanges for the 2021 plan year, and their sign-ups accounted for 7% of all plan selections for 2020. Still, 25 of the 36 states using HealthCare.gov saw an enrollment increase for 2021 compared with 2020.
