Connecticut meets health care enrollment goal

[mota bhai 2,675]

Last week Access Health announced that it was the first state to pass an enrollment goal set by the federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. As of Dec. 23 -- the last day to enroll for those who wished to be covered by the first of this year -- more than 62,000 had signed up either for Medicaid or one of the three plans offered by private insurance carriers on the exchange.

"We're still doing a thousand a day," Counihan said. "I would have thought that, after Dec. 23, things would have really dipped."

He said he expects the dip will happen soon, but that it won't last long. "I think it's going to be a really slow January, then pick up in mid-February and March is going to be a zoo," he said.

Despite the success with enrollment, Counihan said there are still several concerns he wants to see addressed down the road. One is that a Spanish language version of the Access Health CT web site still isn't available.
