Since state insurance exchanges opened for enrollment earlier this month, they have run into a number of glitches. Covered California pulled its online directory of medical providers due to labeling mistakes, and grappled with other computer problems. We discuss what this means for those trying to get insured, and the insurance companies, in preparation for the rollout of Obamacare.

Guests:

Lisa Aliferis, health editor for KQED News and editor of the State of Health blog

Dan Diamond, managing editor of "Daily Briefing," the Advisory Board's newsletter; and contributor to Forbes and California Healthline

Sabrina Corlette, research professor at the Health Policy Institute, Georgetown University

Dana Howard, Media & Public Affairs, Covered California
