Plan selections at HealthCare.gov fell for the second week in a row as overall volume for open enrollment 2019 continues to lag behind last year, according to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services.

Open enrollment 2019 vs. 2018: Weekly plan selections

Just over 500,000 plans – 369,000 renewals and 131,000 new applications – were selected during week 4 (Nov. 18-24) for the 2019 coverage year in the 39 states that use the HealthCare.gov platform, which is down from 748,000 for week 3 and 805,000 for week 2.
