A federal judge’s recent ruling on the Affordable Care Act is by no means the final word. Even parsing its impact is complicated. Here are key issues to watch as the case works its way through the legal system.

During open enrollment for Obamacare, a record number of people signed up for private health insurance. Now the Biden administration has to pivot to helping people who are at risk of losing Medicaid.

A survey by Florida Blue shows the main reason people give for not enrolling in a health plan in Florida is the perceived high cost of insurance.

Since 2017, Medicaid expansion has been adopted in seven states where a question was placed directly on the ballot. But campaign leaders say that strategy may not work in Florida.

Navigators at USF have received thousands of calls in need of help sorting through the complexities of the health care market, and leaders expect more people to reach out as the deadline looms closer.

Complaints about misleading health insurance marketing are soaring. State insurance commissioners are taking notice. They’ve created a shared internal database to monitor questionable business practices.

There's finally been a fix to the "family glitch" that made marketplace health plans sometimes unaffordable. And although premiums are rising, subsidies are too, and more people are eligible.

Many companies have dropped commissions during the Biden administration's special enrollment period. The industry’s trade group says that people who sign up outside the end-of-the-year window tend to be sicker, driving up the price of insurance.

Jodi Ray of Florida Covering Kids & Families says one reason for the jump may be the Biden administration’s push for more resources toward marketing and outreach, particularly through the American Rescue Plan.

Subsidies from the president's coronavirus relief act and an extended enrollment period helped add 600,000 Floridians through the federal marketplace.
