"Look past its start-up glitches — they’ll get fixed — HealthCare.gov is an out-of-the-box success for consumers shopping for health insurance.
- Glitches were due to 2.8 million people hitting the website on the first day
- Premiums in the marketplace are significantly cheaper than expected, even without federal subsidies. For example, for a 40-year-old nonsmoker, the site’s policy will cost $2,700 a year less than the average employer-provided health care coverage for the same person. That’s a pretty significant savings.
Having an open marketplaces where companies compete for your business in an open and transparent way is exactly the kind of market-based solution that you would think Republicans would be promoting. After all, they came up with the idea. Maybe they aren’t telling the truth when they claim to be in favor of free enterprise.
