President Joe Biden has moved to expand the window for low-income Americans to join the Affordable Care Act program, also known as “Obamacare.” This move would likely support his campaign promise to expand former President Barack Obama’s health care plan.
Under a plan unveiled Thursday by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), tens of millions of individuals who were previously ineligible for Medicaid would have the opportunity to enroll for new coverage until Nov. 30. This is an extension from the original deadline of July 31 that was established for the special enrollment period.
