Top Trump administration health official Seema Verma said Wednesday that the federal government will not devote more funding to Obamacare ads for the 2019 coverage year, after slashing outreach funding for 2018 by 90 percent.
Verma, head of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, told the Washington Examiner in an interview that she was pleased with the effort the administration made last year. She also defended the decision to not set a sign-up target for the 2019 open enrollment, set to start in November.
