Funding the navigators: Florida's Obamacare helpers get another $6.8 million

Funding the navigators: Florida's Obamacare helpers get another $6.8 million « Watchdog.org: "TALLAHASSEE — Round two of Obamacare open enrollment is eight weeks away, and the Obama administration is once again spending millions on “navigator” outreach programs.
 The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services announced last week it’s handing out $60 million in new funding for 90 organizations.
Florida was among the top states, garnering nearly $6.8 million — only Texas received more.
The grant recipients are tasked with continuing sign-up efforts aimed at enrolling eligible participants in mostly government subsidized health insurance plans.
The funding is going to states where the federal government either runs a health insurance exchange or partners with state officials."
