(Bloomberg) — Two days after the troubled online U.S. health exchange went live, just 248 people nationwide had successfully enrolled in insurance plans under President Barack Obama’s Affordable Care Act, documents show.
Notes from meetings at an Obama administration “war room,” obtained by Republican Representative Darrell Issa of California show six people had enrolled in plans on the first day the Healthcare.gov website was running. By the end of the second day, 248 people had enrolled, according to the notes, which were released Thursday night by the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee that Issa leads.
