Affordable Care Act Enrollment Numbers

• 8 million people signed up for private insurance in the Health Insurance Marketplace. For states that have Federally-Facilitated Marketplaces, 35 percent of those who signed up are under 35 years old and 28 percent are between 18 and 34 years old, virtually the same youth percentage that signed up in Massachusetts in their first year of health reform. • 3 million young adults gained coverage by being able to stay on their parents plan. • 3 million more people were enrolled in Medicaid and CHIP as of February, compared to before the Marketplaces opened. • 5 million people are enrolled in plans that meet ACA standards outside the Marketplace, according to a CBO estimate. • 5.7 million people will be uninsured in 2016 because 24 States have not expanded Medicaid.
