Comment: Per the ACA’s section 1311, many people who go to the exchanges expecting to buy insurance will unexpectedly find themselves automatically enrolled in Medicaid.
“I actually tried to get my son signed up through the Kentucky exchange, you know, that the Democrats have said is so good. And I have here my son’s Medicaid card: We didn’t try to get him Medicaid; I’m trying to pay for his insurance, but they automatically enrolled him in Medicaid.” –U.S. Sen. Rand Paul, KY
