Monday is the open enrollment deadline for Covered California, the state’s new health insurance exchange.

Guests:

Lisa Aliferis, editor of KQED's State of Health blog

Emily Bazar, senior writer at the California HealthCare Foundation Center for Health Reporting at the USC Annenberg School for Communications and Journalism
