Obama administration will allow more time to enroll in health care;

By Amy Goldstein, Published: March 25 E-mail the writers
The Obama administration has decided to give extra time to Americans who say that they are unable to enroll in health plans through the federal insurance marketplace by the March 31 deadline.

Federal officials confirmed Tuesday evening that all consumers who have begun to apply for coverage on HealthCare.gov, but who do not finish by Monday, will have until about mid-April to ask for an extension.

Under the new rules, people will be able to qualify for an extension by checking a blue box on HealthCare.gov to indicate that they tried to enroll before the deadline. This method will rely on an honor system; the government will not try to determine whether the person is telling the truth.

Gee, sounds like they will get that 7 million sign ups, after all...

Considering that prisoners are now "enrolled", that ought to really bring up the numbers of "enrolled". Aren't we gonna have fun paying for all of those freeloaders?

Oh Happy Day.......NOT!

I would like to see the actual breakdown of that 7.1 million sign ups Obama was heralding and doing a victory lap in the Rose Garden...

At least the prisoners will have their plans paid for, yes us taxpayers.

The number is about 25% who haven't sent that first payment check in?

The White House has been counting Medicare signups which is already a annual numbers?

The number of sign ups that had lost their insurance from ObamaCare?

The actual number of uninsured getting medical insurance? (That's what this whole law is about...)

The number of insured who will lose their insurance once all the wavers have expired and large employers started cancelling their employees Junk policies?

Seems this law is working out to be the Single payer system they have always wanted.. Welcome to the USSA.. United Socialist States of America, comrade...
