The Covered California marketplace is now open for business.

The guide will continue to be updated by KQED News health editors as more information is made available by Covered California.

The non-partisan and unbiased guide, which has already received more than 90,000 page views, is easy-to-use, printable and mobile-friendly, and is available free of charge for other outlets to embed and share at kqed.org/obamacare.
