Vermont Public Radio reports that "fewer people than expected are enrolling in state-sponsored Catamount health plans." Indeed recently, the "Health Care Reform Commission looked at the difference between enrollment projections for the various Catamount health plans - and the actual number of people who signed up" and found that enrollment is about 40 percent below the estimates. Susan Besio, the Douglas Administration's point person on health care reform, said "she wasn't sure why people are choosing not to get coverage." Currently "about 60,000 people in Vermont lack health insurance," 25 percent of which are young people.
