How do you sign up and/or apply for an exchange
Posted: Sep 30, 2013
when some states are not ready and even D.C. isn't ready.
OREGON: Rocky King, the executive director of Oregon’s new health insurance exchange, has done everything in his power to tamp down expectations for its opening on Tuesday. Mr. King is not even allowing people to sign up for health coverage online without assistance at first; they will have to go through an insurance agent or a community group until at least mid-October.
D.C. The exchange announced that it would not immediately be able to determine online whether people qualify for Medicaid, which about half the states are expanding under the law, or for a federal subsidy to help cover the cost of private coverage. In Colorado, for the first month, people who want to know if they are eligible for a subsidy will have to call a customer service line.
NEVADA: A Spanish-language version of the exchange Web site will not be ready until mid-November.
MARYLAND: small businesses will not be able to buy insurance for their employees through the state exchange until January. Federally run exchanges are having similar problems.
COLORADO: The state-run exchange, known as Connect for Health Colorado, will not be able to calculate federal subsidies for at least its first few weeks of operation. Instead, state residents who wish to determine if they are eligible for a subsidy will be directed to call a customer service representative, who will perform the calculation manually.
VERMONT: The state-run exchange, known as Connect for Health Colorado, will not be able to calculate federal subsidies for at least its first few weeks of operation. Instead, state residents who wish to determine if they are eligible for a subsidy will be directed to call a customer service representative, who will perform the calculation manually.
Many of the 16 directors of state-run exchanges are describing October as a “soft launch” period, when Americans can start exploring their coverage options — but on Web sites that may be incomplete, vulnerable to glitches and perhaps not ready for an onslaught of customers.

White Elephant Gift ExchangeDec 09, 2011

At a party last weekend the host told us that last year one of the single guys (first timer) gave an expensive painting. So they were joking that the person who g ...
