Linea Abierta - English Description - Show in Spanish show

Summary: Fewer Latinos Signing Up for Obamacare. About three million people have signed up for private health insurance plans through the insurance exchanges nationwide, and applications for Medicaid, the federal insurance program for the poor, have surged in states that have chosen to expand coverage. Still, in California, and arguably in other states, only a fraction of eligible Latinos are enrolling in the health exchange market. Why is this happening? Health experts give answers and delve into the workings of the law. Guest: Hugo Ramirez, Manager, Covered California, Vision y Compormiso, Los Angeles, CA, www.visionycompromiso.org/
