Begich declines health insurance subsidy

Share on :



Sen Mark Begich, a Democrat facing a competitive reelection race next year, has enrolled in the Obamacare health exchange and has turned down a federal government contribution.


'I want to have the exact same experience and go through the same steps as other Alaskans when it comes to signing up for health care, which is why I have decided to refuse any federal subsidy and have signed up on Alaska's federally run marketplace,' Begich said in a statement.


He signed up on the Alaska exchange this morning, his office said. Begich has stressed that he wants to hold the White House responsible for the rollout of the law.

'As I've said many times before, this law is not perfect, and that is why I will continue to hold both the administration and the insurance companies accountable to ensure that Alaskans have access to the facts and are able to receive the care they want and need,' Begich said.


Lawmakers and their staff who enter the exchanges are eligible for the same subsidies that other federal workers get for their health plan.
