On February 3, 2017, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services released its final snapshot of plan selections for the fourth Healthcare.gov open enrollment period, which ended on January 31, 2017. As of that date, 9,201,805 individuals had selected plans through Healthcare.gov in the 39 states that it serves. About 3 million of these were new consumers and 6.2 million were returning consumers.
This number does not include plan selections through the dozen state-based marketplaces that do not use HealthCare.gov. It is a count of individuals who selected plans, not of those who actually paid a binder premium payment and thus effectuated enrollment. Effectuated enrollment counts will be released later.
