There's what you posted, then there are the facts. Avik Roy, arguably the most intelligent commentator on the entire thing: If we assume that 80 percent of the 6 million will ultimately pay up, that’s 4.8 million enrollees. And we don’t know what percentage of those enrollees were previously uninsured. After all, the core goal of Obamacare is to increase the number of Americans with health insurance. Thus far, surveys indicate that the vast majority of enrollees were previously insured. If we assume, beyond the available evidence, that as many as half of Obamacare exchange enrollees were previously uninsured, we end up with 2.4 million uninsured exchange enrollees. The Congressional Budget Office’s original prediction was that more than 6 million previously uninsured people would sign up for exchange-based coverage in the first year. forbes.com

Aren't those the same 6million that lost the insurance they were previously paying for but considered substandard because men for example weren't covered for pre-natal care, breast exams, and birth control pills and abortions?
