Actually the newly insured are counted in some very strange ways. They included those who lost the coverage that they had and were reinsured are counted as newly covered. In the beginning of this fiasco there were suppose to be around 30 million uninsured. I think the number is about the same.

I also don't trust this administrations handling of "numbers". Nobody who was poor was uninsured as they had Medicaid. The great effect of the ACA was to strip working people of affordable insurance and force them to buy new policies that include "everything". Millions of people have birth control in their policies although they cannot get pregnant. That is simply just one example. neonatal care would be another. There are two many of "everything" and the insurance companies have to provide it, so they charge for it.

That is my last entry in this discussion. The program is out of control, it was made to fail and be flipped into a single payer system. That is my story and I am sticking with it.
