How many were uninsured before?

How many are counted as "enrollees" like myself, who never finished the app and have re-acquired insurance elsewhere?

"How many of those have actually paid?"

Insurance companies will be reporting that by the end of the month I expect....

"How many of those are people who lost their previous insurance because of Obamacare?"

Donno... but I expect folks will tweak that out of the data.

But we already see (from the Rand Corp national survey, and also from Kaiser) that there is about a NINE million person *increase* in the ranks of insured Americans vs. prior.

So... whatever the number of 'people who lost their previous insurance because of Obamacare' it is millions SMALLER than the numbers for the additions to insurance coverage because there is a net increase of nine mil. or more.
