Appeals court issues stay permitting DACA recipients to enroll in Marketplace plans in all states

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services announced that the 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals Dec. 16 issued a temporary stay of a preliminary injunction granted in Kansas v. United States of America. The decision now permits Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals recipients to enroll in a qualified health plan through the Health Insurance Marketplace in all states, including the 19 involved in the lawsuit. CMS said it would notify consumers if future court decisions impact their coverage.
