31 March was the deadline for open enrollment under the Affordable Care Act.
The law’s potential of getting all previously uninsured Americans covered has fallen somewhat short. A poll released just days before the deadline showed that 50 percent of uninsured citizens from the ages of 18-64 plan to remain uninsured and pay the penalty fee on their 2014 tax returns.
We look forward to welcoming a lot more uninsured (and insured) Americans to Costa Rica.
