How many people actually signed up? And by that I mean people who have paid their first month's premiums. In California, 15% of sign-ups haven't paid.. In Wisconsin and Georgia, it’s closer to 20%. In Nevada and Vermont, it’s more than 30%.
How many that signed up are the in the targeted age range of 18-34? Remember after the disasterous rollout, the White House said they weren't really worried about the number of people, but of the demographic. Remember these young people are needed to balance out premiums for the older folks.
Are the young people that did sign up, healthy? Premium pricing can vary widely if this isn't the case.
Same questions above for the State-Run markets. By the middle of March, 13 states had exceeded initial enrollment projections. But another 12 states were at less than half their projected sign-ups, and 24 were at less than two-thirds of sign-up expectations. Obamacare can vary widely based on the state you live in.
How many of the people enrolled under the law were previously uninsured? And how many of them were previously among the long-term uninsured? Surveys and word from insurance industry insiders suggest that anywhere from 1/4 to 1/2 of enrollments were previously uninsured, meaning it’s possible that the majority of enrollments are for people who were already covered before the law’s insurance expansion took effect.
Biggest question of all....What will premiums look like next year?
