A Mount Olive, North Carolina family says they may forgo health insurance this year and pay the fine because of Obamacare glitches, WRAL reports:
Wendy and Eddie Davidson and their 17-year-old son have been without insurance for seven years. The couple own a yard equipment repair shop, and they felt insurance was too expensive.
They were eager to shop for coverage through the online health exchange, but that quickly faded as frustration mounted over the enrollment process.
"They make it out like it's so easy and you can shop for all these insurances, and we've just not found that's the case at all," Wendy Davidson said Tuesday.
Eddie Davidson has been trying to navigate HealthCare.gov for three weeks without success.
"Every day, he would start in the morning before he went to work," his wife said. "Then, he would try again at lunchtime. Then, go on at night. This went on for a long time."
