First, a reassuring word from the woman in charge of the state’s Affordable Care Act program to the 89,061 Nevadans who signed up for coverage this year: You’re good.
“There isn’t any concern about 2017,” said Heather Korbulic, executive director of the Silver State Health Insurance Exchange.
That island of relative certainty amid the swirling sea of questions about the ACA’s future under a hostile Congress and presidential administration stands as rare encouraging news for Nevadans accessing health insurance through the public marketplace. Republican pledges to repeal and replace the ACA hovered over the program’s open enrollment period, tasking Korbulic and her team with considerable myth-busting.
