Some Americans removed from Affordable Care Act plans in a federal fraud sweep have been quietly put back on coverage, but the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services will not say how many. Insurance industry sources told KFF Health News that CMS has reinstated a small number of people whose coverage should not have been canceled.
More reinstatements could follow, the outlet reported, as enrollees discover they are uninsured when they try to use their coverage. CMS has not disclosed how quickly reinstatements happen or how many cancellations have been reversed.
