4.6 Million Americans Choose ACA for Health Insurance During Pandemic

ReleaseWire

New York, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/31/2022 -- The Affordable Care Act (ACA) has had a bumpy journey since it was first enacted in 2010. However, when President Biden came into office in January last year he reopened the nation's online insurance marketplace - a move that was incredibly timely given the ongoing pandemic conditions the country was suffering through. In the six weeks following 1st November last year, an all-time high of 12.6 million Americans signed up for health coverage under the ACA. President Biden has been quoted as saying, "As we keep up our fight against the pandemic, it is more important than ever that we continue to expand coverage and lower costs." His Build Back Better plans include proposals to expand health insurance coverage, in particular for poorer states. In 2021 as a whole, 4.6 million Americans were able to access health insurance coverage via the ACA, something that is proving essential as the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve.

The market for health insurance is at a critical point in the US as the country looks forward to a future of recovery from the impact of the pandemic.
