As of April 2014, how many individuals in Florida had selected a Marketplace Plan?

In April 2014, the number of individuals in Florida who had selected a Marketplace Plan under the Affordable Care Act was reported to be 983,775. This figure reflects the enrollment statistics shortly after the initial open enrollment period for the Health Insurance Marketplace, which began in October 2013 and ended in March 2014.

Enrollment data during this period indicated significant participation rates in states with Exchanges like Florida, which had a large population of uninsured individuals prior to the ACA implementation. This specific number showcases the impact of the ACA in expanding access to health insurance coverage in Florida, particularly in a state that had historically experienced challenges related to health insurance affordability and availability.

The other numbers presented either overstate or understate the enrollment figures based on publicly available data from that time. The statistics have been documented through various reports and press releases related to the ACA, emphasizing the importance of accurate data in understanding the reach and effectiveness of the policy.
