PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — Oregon’s health exchange and insurance carriers are looking at extending deadlines to allow more people to get coverage starting Jan. 1, Cover Oregon’s acting director said Thursday.
The news came two days after Bruce Goldberg and Gov. John Kitzhaber acknowledged that, despite earlier promises, thousands of people who applied for coverage by a Dec. 4 deadline would not be insured by January because the state wouldn’t have enough time to process their applications.
