Six Enrollments for Obamacare on Day One
Just six people completed enrollment on Healthcare.gov on October 1, according to internal memos obtained by the House Oversight Committee.
Entitled “CCIIO war room notes,” the documents illustrate that only six individuals had enrolled in coverage through the Federal website in the first 24 hours. By the morning of October 2, 100 people had enrolled, and that numbers increased to 248 by the end of the day.
