Oregon: Total QHPs up 745 in 7 days; Medicaid up 11,754

For awhile there I was concerned that Oregon's uglier-by-the-minute legal/technical headaches had caused them to stop bothering with regular updates; fortunately, they seem to be back on track again, updating both QHP and Medicaid numbers:

September 1, 2014
Update: Private coverage and Oregon Health Plan enrollment through Cover Oregon

Medical enrollments through Cover Oregon: 353,120
Total private medical insurance enrollments through Cover Oregon: 100,758

Oregon Health Plan enrollments through Cover Oregon: 252,362*

*OHP enrollment data is current as of August 13, 2014. An updated number will be posted soon.

Dental enrollments 
Total private dental insurance enrollments through CoverOregon: 20,572

Net enrollments 
Net private medical: 78,683
Net private dental: 14,502

Net QHPs are down 31 due to what I presume is normal net attrition, but total enrollments have gone up by another 745 people.

Medicaid expansion, meanwhile, has shot up by another nearly 12,000 people.

When you add in the 128K "fast-track" Medicaid enrollees, they're approaching a half a million people...incredibly impressive for an exchange with a non-functional website!
