Three million people have enrolled in private health plans offered through the Obamacare insurance exchanges, U.S. officials said.
The tally reflects 800,000 new sign ups so far in January, adding to the 2.2 million who enrolled from Oct. 1 through December, according to comments today by U.S. Health Secretary Kathleen Sebelius in a speech in Jacksonville, Fla. A spokesman for the Department of Health and Human Services, Jason Young, confirmed the figure.
