Barack Obama signs up for health insurance coverage

President Barack Obama has signed up for health insurance coverage under ObamaCare.

A White House representative said Monday that the president enrolled in a health plan through the Washington, D.C. insurance marketplace over the weekend.

Barack Obama chose one of the cheapest plan – bronze plan – which covers 60% of medical costs.

“The act of the President signing up for insurance coverage through the DC exchange is symbolic since the President’s health care will continue to be provided by the military,” the aide said.

Barack Obama will pay premiums for the plan, though, the aide said. The insurance would cover only the president, not his wife or children, and the premium will be less than $400 per month.

All presidents and their immediate families get coverage through the military. As Commander-in-Chief, any president has a personal physician and he and his family get full care at the White House Medical Unit and the National Naval Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland.
