So far California has received $910 million in federal grants to launch its new health insurance exchange under the Affordable Care Act ("Obamacare").
The California exchange, "Covered California," has so far awarded a $183 million contract to Accenture to build the website, enrollment, and eligibility system and another $174 million to operate the exchange for four years.
The state will also spend $250 million on a two-year marketing campaign. By comparison California Senator Barbara Boxer spent $28 million on her 2010 statewide reelection campaign while her challenger spent another $22 million.
The most recent installment of the $910 million in federal money was a $674 million grant. The exchange's executive director The Feds Will Administer the Insurance Exchanges for Twice What it Costs to Administer Medicare
