The federal health insurance marketplace has been getting heavy traffic since the Thanksgiving weekend, according to the administration, receiving a million visitors on Monday. That's twice as many visitors as the site had been seeing, officials said, resulting in higher error rates and longer wait times.
Still, the site did not crash and processed at least 18,000 new enrollments, according to the administration. About 13,000 users ended up in the queuing system designed to avoid overload. Those users will get an email asking them to return to the site at a less busy time.
