Experts and consumer advocates said while lawmakers continue to discuss repeal and replace policies, the health plans offered under ACA exchanges for 2017 coverage, as well as the subsidies to offset premium costs for low-income consumers, will remain intact until 2018.
Sabrina Corlette, a research professor at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C., told NYT unless something “drastic” occurs, consumers will be covered through the end of 2017. The deadline to signup for health insurance this year through the ACA exchanges is Jan. 31 for coverage beginning March 1.
