By Susan Cornwell and Roberta Rampton WASHINGTON (Reuters) - For most Americans who don't have health insurance, Monday is the deadline to sign up for coverage starting on January 1 under President Barack Obama's healthcare law. There is a "hardship" exception for some that permits them not to sign up any kind of health insurance at all without facing a penalty - the hardship being problems they've encountered with Obamacare and its malfunctioning website HealthCare.gov. There will also be a "good faith exception" for others, according to a senior Obama administration official. Still others may simply get a break from insurance companies, which the administration has urged to be flexible with people who miss the deadline.
