While Republicans in the U.S. Senate continue their efforts to defund the Affordable Care Act, California is moving full-speed ahead to implement the health care law. Covered California, the state health care exchange, is set to launch on Oct. 1. We talk to the director of Covered California, and take your questions on plans and premiums.

Guests:

Peter Lee, executive director of Covered California

Lisa Aliferis, health editor for KQED News where she edits the State of Health blog

Betsy Imholz, special projects director for Consumers Union and an expert on health policy
