I've heard a lot about the Affordable Care Act. What is it and how will it affect me?

The Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare, was signed into law by President Barack Obama in 2010. It aims to provide affordable health insurance coverage to millions of uninsured Americans through Medicaid expansion, subsidies for private insurance plans, and other measures. It has already helped millions of people gain access to health care services they previously couldn’t afford or didn’t have access to. In short, it provides more options for individuals and families to get the medical care they need at an affordable price.
