Carney: We’re Not Sure if All 3.3 Million ObamaCare Enrollees Have Paid Premiums

WH: Unsure If All 3.3 Million Obamacare Enrollees Have Made Their Premium Payments (Washington Free Beacon)

White House press secretary Jay Carney conceded the White House does not have completely accurate data yet about the percentage of Obamacare enrollees who have actually made their premium payments Friday in the White House press conference.

CNN’s Jim Acosta cited a New York Times story which reported 20 percent of Obamacare enrollees failed to make their payments on time and thus did not receive coverage in January.

Carney acknowledged right now the issuers have the most accurate data on who has actually paid for their policy. Moreover, Carney put his own spin on the New York Times report, telling Acosta all indications are “a very high percentage” of health insurance shoppers have made their payments.
