Hsieh LTE in WaPo on ObamaCare Enrollees

The Washington Post published my letter-to-the-editor (LTE) on how the White House counts ObamaCare enrollees:

An Obamacare and income tax accounting

So the White House counts as Obamacare enrollees “those who simply picked a plan and put it in their online shopping cart” but have not yet paid for it. Do I then get to count as having paid my taxes if I’ve filled out my 1040 form but haven’t mailed in my check?
