The truth behind the Obamacare numbers | TBO.com, The Tampa Tribune and The Tampa Times

The truth behind the Obamacare numbers | TBO.com, The Tampa Tribune and The Tampa Times:

"These data tell us two basic things about Obamacare’s performance.

First, when it comes to covering the uninsured, Obamacare is so far mainly an expansion of Medicaid.

Second, the new government exchanges didn’t enroll many people who were previously uninsured.

The problem with Obamacare mainly being a Medicaid expansion is that the new Medicaid enrollees are not the vulnerable poor — children and disabled adults — that the program was designed to serve."
