To Uninsured, Faulty Website=Technical Barrier (Being Repaired) -PALES To Barriers Faced In The Past
The results showed that the rise in both the law's popularity and in the uninsured's willingness to buy was much greater in the 14 states that chose to run their own exchanges and whose sites have generally operated more smoothly than HealthCare.gov, which serves the other 36 states.
More than half of respondents in state-run exchanges now favor the law compared with about four in 10 elsewhere.
To the uninsured the faulty website is "a technical barrier that is being repaired and it pales to barriers they've faced in the past," said Sara Collins, vice president at the Commonwealth Fund, a private healthcare research foundation.
