A record number of Americans have signed up for health insurance through Affordable Care Act (ACA) marketplaces this year, according to early data published by the Biden administration this week.
More than 15 million people have enrolled in 2024 coverage under the ACA — often called by its nickname, Obamacare — as of Dec. 15, which is 33% higher than the roughly 11 million who did so last year.
This figure includes those who have bought insurance through state-based marketplaces or at HealthCare.gov, the website run by the federal government.
The Department of Health & Human Services said it expects more than 19 million to enroll by the deadline of 5 a.m. ET on Jan. 17, 2024 — about 7 million more people than when President Joe Biden took office. Their coverage will begin on Feb. 1.
On Dec. 15 alone, more than 745,000 enrolled in plans on HealthCare.gov. Health officials said it was the highest number of visitors ever recorded since the portal rolled out in 2013.
