This week we’re taking a closer look at recent changes to the ACA individual exchanges and what impact that is having on uninsured Americans. 1 million Americans have signed up for covers through the federal exchange during the first 10 weeks of a special enrollment period opened up by the Biden administration on February 15. Nearly half of those new enrollees purchase coverage after Congress passed legislation, adding billions in subsidies that reduced the average monthly premium from $117 to 86. The Biden administration has extended that special enrollment period until August 15, and is advocating to permanently extend those premium subsidies.
