Vermont: 3,000 QHP renewals in first 5 days

Yes, these are renewals, but this is still extremely impressive, especially seeing how the number has doubled since Monday night:

A new open enrollment period began Saturday, and since then the system has taken in more than 600 new applications and processed more than 3,000 renewals of existing policies.

Vermont Health Connect spokesman Sean Sheehan says the system's performance hasn't been flawless, but he described its improvement over last year as like night and day.
