WI ObamaCare sign-up difficult

MADISON – Three.

That’s how many people had signed up for individual insurance – or, more aptly put, could sign up – with Gundersen Health Plan, one of 13 insurers participating in the federal health-care exchange in Wisconsin.

“That’s a lot lower than we were projecting,” Greg Skemp, director of sales and marketing for the La Crosse-based carrier told Wisconsin Reporter.

Skemp will tell you it’s not the insurance product that’s to blame for the less-than-impressive showing in the first couple weeks-plus of the national roll out of Obamacare enrollment. It’s the $93.7 million federal website ostensibly designed to move customers through the health insurance marketplace described as everything from “glitchy” to an utter fiasco.
