The Affordable Care Act (ACA) is a federal statute enacted with a goal of increasing the quality and affordability of health insurance. Through a web service, CMS sends applicant information to SSA. SSA matches applicant data to various SSA data sources and provides a response back to CMS, based on the results of the matches. The results of these matches help CMS and states determine an applicant's eligibility and cost for health insurance. SSA provides results to CMS for matches of SSN, Name, and DOB against the Numident. SSA may also provide incarceration data from PUPS, Title II income from the MBR, and quarters of coverage data from the MEF.
This statistic shows the estimated impacts of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) on health insurance coverage in the United States in 2014 and 2023. For 2023, it is estimated that there will be ** million more individuals covered under Medicaid and CHIP. Medicaid is an optional plan for the United States. Enrollment for this plan is expected to increase after provisions from the Affordable Care Act that established an minimum eligibility threshold at *** percent of the federal poverty level.
As of 2024, roughly 45 million individuals in the U.S. benefited from the Affordable Care Act and were enrolled in some form of ACA-related health insurance. This figure has increased from 12.6 million in 2014, the year ACA took effect. Since then, there has been an increase in the number of people who have become eligible for free or subsidized health care. Individuals can now enroll in ACA Marketplace and be eligible for premium tax credits, they may have become newly-eligible for Medicaid in states that have expanded Medicaid, or were previously eligible but didn't know or were unable to apply. Moreover, some states have introduced the Basic Health Program to provide continuous coverage for low-income individuals whose income fluctuates above and below Medicaid eligibility. This statistic portrays the number of Affordable Care Act-related (ACA) enrollments in the Marketplace, Medicaid, and the Basic Health Program (BHP) in the U.S. from 2014 to 2024.
As of March 2023, 62 percent of the respondents had a favorable opinion on the health reform, the Affordable Care Act (ACA) otherwise know as Obamacare, highest share in the provided time interval. Opinions about the ACA
Favorability for the health reform law in the United States has fluctuated since 2010 till 2017. In April 2010, 46 percent of U.S. adults had a favorable opinion regarding the ACA, while 45 percent said the same six years later in October 2016. As expected, Republicans tended to consider the ACA as unfavorable while Democrats were more likely to favor the bill. However, after 2017 the share of U.S. who favor the ACA has steadily increased and is steadily above those who view it unfavorably.
The ACA had a major goal, to expand health care coverage. This bill prevents health plans from limiting or denying coverage to children with pre-existing conditions, arbitrarily withdrawing insurance coverage, and implementing lifetime limits on coverage. The ACA is expected to reduce the number of uninsured individuals by 25 million people by 2023. Those who view the ACA favorably usually reason that the bill will increase health care and insurance access, while the opposition often mentions that the health costs may increase and that the law is too expensive.

This dataset provides sample premium information for individual ACA-compliant health insurance plans available to Iowans for 2025 within Silver, Bronze and Gold metal levels for each county. The premiums provided in the dataset for each plan are for informational purposes only. Plan choices under the Affordable Care Act fall into different categories or metal levels, i.e., bronze (60%), silver (70%), gold (80%), platinum (90%), and catastrophic (less than 60% -- generally limited to those under the age of 30). A silver plan (on average) would be expected to pay around 70% of healthcare expenses for a standard population. The individual, therefore, would pay about 30%. This dataset does not include platinum or catastrophic. On or after November 1, 2024, please go to www.healthcare.gov to view available plans.

This data is pulled from the U.S. Census website. This data is for years Calendar Years 2009-2014. Product: SAHIE File Layout Overview Small Area Health Insurance Estimates Program - SAHIE Filenames: SAHIE Text and SAHIE CSV files 2009 – 2014 Source: Small Area Health Insurance Estimates Program, U.S. Census Bureau. Internet Release Date: May 2016 Description: Model‐based Small Area Health Insurance Estimates (SAHIE) for Counties and States File Layout and Definitions
The Small Area Health Insurance Estimates (SAHIE) program was created to develop model-based estimates of health insurance coverage for counties and states. This program builds on the work of the Small Area Income and Poverty Estimates (SAIPE) program. SAHIE is only source of single-year health insurance coverage estimates for all U.S. counties.
For 2008-2014, SAHIE publishes STATE and COUNTY estimates of population with and without health insurance coverage, along with measures of uncertainty, for the full cross-classification of: •5 age categories: 0-64, 18-64, 21-64, 40-64, and 50-64
•3 sex categories: both sexes, male, and female
•6 income categories: all incomes, as well as income-to-poverty ratio (IPR) categories 0-138%, 0-200%, 0-250%, 0-400%, and 138-400% of the poverty threshold
•4 races/ethnicities (for states only): all races/ethnicities, White not Hispanic, Black not Hispanic, and Hispanic (any race).
In addition, estimates for age category 0-18 by the income categories listed above are published.
Each year’s estimates are adjusted so that, before rounding, the county estimates sum to their respective state totals and for key demographics the state estimates sum to the national ACS numbers insured and uninsured.
This program is partially funded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC), National Breast and Cervical Cancer Early Detection ProgramLink to a non-federal Web site (NBCCEDP). The CDC have a congressional mandate to provide screening services for breast and cervical cancer to low-income, uninsured, and underserved women through the NBCCEDP. Most state NBCCEDP programs define low-income as 200 or 250 percent of the poverty threshold. Also included are IPR categories relevant to the Affordable Care Act (ACA). In 2014, the ACA will help families gain access to health care by allowing Medicaid to cover families with incomes less than or equal to 138 percent of the poverty line. Families with incomes above the level needed to qualify for Medicaid, but less than or equal to 400 percent of the poverty line can receive tax credits that will help them pay for health coverage in the new health insurance exchanges.
We welcome your feedback as we continue to research and improve our estimation methods. The SAHIE program's age model methodology and estimates have undergone internal U.S. Census Bureau review as well as external review. See the SAHIE Methodological Review page for more details and a summary of the comments and our response.
The SAHIE program models health insurance coverage by combining survey data from several sources, including: •The American Community Survey (ACS) •Demographic population estimates •Aggregated federal tax returns •Participation records for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), formerly known as the Food Stamp program •County Business Patterns •Medicaid •Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) participation records •Census 2010
Margin of error (MOE). Some ACS products provide an MOE instead of confidence intervals. An MOE is the difference between an estimate and its upper or lower confidence bounds. Confidence bounds can be created by adding the margin of error to the estimate (for the upper bound) and subtracting the margin of error from the estimate (for the lower bound). All published ACS margins of error are based on a 90-percent confidence level.

Under the Affordable Care Act, individual states have discretion in how they define coverage regions, within which insurers must charge the same premium to buyers of the same age, family structure, and smoking status. We exploit variation in these definitions to investigate whether the size of the coverage region affects outcomes in the ACA marketplaces. We find large consequences for small and rural markets. When states combine small counties with neighboring urban areas into a single region, the included rural markets see 0.6 to 0.8 more active insurers, on average, and savings in annual premiums of between $200 and $300.
This statistic displays an estimate of the number of uninsured nonelderly people in the United States without the Affordable Care Act (ACA) from 2015 to 2025. By 2018, the number of uninsured people aged under 65 years would reach 55 million without the current health law.
In 2023, 25 million people in the United States had no health insurance. The share of Americans without health insurance saw a steady increase from 2015 to 2019 before starting to decline in 2020 to 2023. Factors like the implementation of Medicaid expansion in additional states and growth in private health insurance coverage led to the decline in uninsured population, despite the economic challenges due to the pandemic in 2020. Positive impact of Affordable Care Act In the U.S. there are public and private forms of health insurance, as well as social welfare programs such as Medicaid and programs just for veterans such as CHAMPVA. The Affordable Care Act (ACA) was enacted in 2010, which dramatically reduced the share of uninsured Americans, though there’s still room for improvement. In spite of its success in providing more Americans with health insurance, ACA has had an almost equal number of proponents and opponents since its introduction, though the share of Americans in favor of it has risen since mid-2017 to the majority. Persistent disparity among ethnic groups The share of uninsured people is higher in certain demographic groups. For instance, Hispanics continue to be the ethnic group with the highest rate of uninsured people, even after ACA. Meanwhile the share of uninsured White and Asian people is lower than the national average.
The percentage of people in the United States with health insurance has increased over the past decade with a noticeably sharp increase in 2014 when the Affordable Care Act (ACA) was enacted. As of 2023, around ** percent of people in the United States had some form of health insurance, compared to around ** percent in 2010. Despite the increases in the percentage of insured people in the U.S., there were still over ** million people in the United States without health insurance as of 2023. Insurance coverage Health insurance in the United States consists of different private and public insurance programs such as those provided by private employers or those provided publicly through Medicare and Medicaid. Almost half of the insured population in the United States were insured privately through an employer as of 2021, while **** percent of people were insured through Medicaid, and **** percent through Medicare . The Affordable Care Act The Affordable Care Act (ACA), enacted in 2014, has significantly reduced the number of uninsured people in the United States. In 2014, the percentage of U.S. individuals with health insurance increased to almost ** percent. Furthermore, the percentage of people without health insurance reached an all time low in 2022. Public opinion on healthcare reform in the United States remains an ongoing political issue with public opinion consistently divided.

In January 2013, the Urban Institute launched the Health Reform Monitoring Survey (HRMS), a survey of the nonelderly population, to explore the value of cutting-edge, Internet-based survey methods to monitor the Affordable Care Act (ACA) before data from federal government surveys are available. Topics covered by the 21st round of the survey (June 2022) include self-reported health status, health insurance coverage, access to health care, disability, COVID-19, awareness of the Medicaid continuous coverage requirement, past-due medical debt, unfair treatment in health care settings, food security, and access to transportation. Additional information collected by the survey includes age, gender, sexual orientation, marital status, education, race and ethnicity, United States citizenship, housing type, home ownership, internet access, income, and employment status.
