- Excerpt from Open Enrollment Update:

On February 11th, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) announced that since the beginning of Open Enrollment, 7.75 million consumers selected a plan or were automatically re-enrolled through HealthCare.gov—which includes the Federally Facilitated Marketplaces, State Partnership Marketplaces and supported State-Based Marketplaces. An additional 275,676 people selected plans between January 31st and February 6th.

While Open Enrollment was scheduled to end on February 15th, technical glitches prompted HHS to extend the deadline one week to accommodate users who were affected. Those consumers who could not complete enrollment due to technical issues or longer than normal wait times at the Marketplace Call Center will have until February 22nd to enroll.
