Because much of ObamaCare was already funded, outside of the CR currently at issue.

Okay, so what part of Obamacare that is impacted by this CR has been shut down?

I don't know, but I'd guess that many HHS employees who would be working on ObamaCare-related issues have been furloughed. The impact may be minimal, though, since the vast majority of ObamaCare funding is part of permanent/mandatory appropriations that are outside of the current CR issue ("much" may have been an understatement in my previous post).
