Open enrollment for Obamacare closes at midnight Tuesday, and Marylanders seem to be signing up for it at almost the same pace they did last year. We’ll talk with the acting head of the ‘Maryland Health Benefits Exchange’ about premium increases and other challenges--including confusion about what might replace the Affordable Care Act when Congress repeals it. And we’ll turn to a professor of health policy and management to discuss some elements the Republican congressional majority is considering.
