Jan. 13 (UPI) — The end of temporary subsidies for Affordable Care Act health insurance policies is raising rates and causing many to lower their coverage or forgo it as open enrollment nears its end.
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services run the HealthCare.gov enrollment site in 30 states and reported about 800,000 fewer signups compared to last year, according to NBC News.
Those states also are seeing fewer new signups and fewer policy renewals than last year.
