Sen. Marco Rubio says he'll introduce legislation to delay the penalty that can be assessed on individuals who don't buy insurance under the government's new health care law.
WellPoint Inc. will become the second major health insurer to detail its third-quarter performance and discuss the health care overhaul's enrollment period when it reports results Wednesday.
Insurer Prudential Financial said Friday it won't try to get regulators to reverse a decision that it is one of a group of financial companies so big that they could threaten the financial system if they were to fail.
Gov. John Kasich said Friday that he's optimistic ahead of a legislative panel vote on whether the state will extend Medicaid coverage to more Ohioans under the federal health care law.
Shares of health insurers fell Friday after a newspaper report said that technology glitches at the new federal health-insurance exchanges are even worse than first thought.
Health insurer UnitedHealth said Tuesday it is extending and expanding its relationship with the AARP and will continue to offer AARP-branded Medicare and insurance products.
A spokesman for Speaker John Boehner says the House will vote Tuesday night on legislation that would reopen the government and avert a financial default.
Nearly 25,000 residents in Washington state have signed up for insurance since open enrollment started earlier this month for the state's new health exchange.
California officials knew a computer upgrade for the state's unemployment insurance program that delayed tens of thousands of benefit checks was vulnerable to problems before it was installed, according to a report from The Sacramento Bee.
