The Waiting Game: ObamaCare Signups Still A Disaster

October 3, 2013

Since the health care exchanges opened on Tuesday, reports of Americans across the country struggling to access the website and sign up for their state’s exchange have been hitting newspapers left and right.

Which is why (not surprisingly) it’s been nearly impossible for reporters and curious people across the country to actually find someone who has successfully signed up for ObamaCare.

Check out today’s article from the Washington Post:

The federal government has said that somewhere out in this vast country of 313 million people, where 48 million lack insurance coverage, someone has managed to sign up for health insurance on the federally-run marketplaces. As of yet, we haven’t tracked this person – or these people – down.

This is not for lack of effort. Reporters here at The Washington Post and at other publications have been on the hunt for this mythical creature.

It’s day 3 of the signups – how come we haven’t heard any success stories yet? I guess we’ll just have to keep waiting….
