More than 15.6 million people have enrolled in plans on federally run ACA exchanges so far, down from about 16 million at the same point last year, CMS Administrator Mehmet Oz, MD, said Dec. 23.
Dr. Oz attributed the decline to efforts to address fraudulent enrollments, writing on X: “Notably, this small drop follows several important CMS actions over the past year to combat fraudulent and improper enrollments, which have already removed more than enough people from premium subsidies who are covered elsewhere to account for the modest enrollment change. That said, there is a politically motivated lawsuit that has paused critical actions to make sure Biden-era improper enrollments are fully knocked out.”
