California opens special Obamacare enrollment

Published February 20, 2015 9:23pm ET



California became the fourth state-run health exchange to offer uninsured residents more time to sign up for Obamacare to avoid further penalties under the healthcare law.

The state’s exchange will offer a special enrollment period from Feb. 23 to April 30 for people subject to the penalty for not having insurance. The extension mirrors one made by the Obama administration earlier for healthcare.gov that runs from March 15 to April 30.
