I signed up for health insurance today on [coveredca.gov](http://coveredca.gov) for the same health insurance plan I have through my business. It took me 20 minutes. My rate through my business (I was a group of one) was $727 per month. Starting Jan 1, my rate as a private person is $408 a month. Beam me up Jerry!
