Despite House Republican congressional
lawmakers’ 54 meaningless votes to repeal Obamacare;
Republican governors refusal to institute health care exchanges; Republican state legislators’ attempts to legislate Medicaid away, and the Koch Brothers' devious and deceptive Obamacare ads, the Affordable Care Act is on its way!
- 8 million individuals have signed up through exchanges.
- The Urban Institute’s Health Policy Center concluded that Obamacare has reduced the number of uninsured Americans by 5.4 million from the first quarter of 2013 through early March this year.
- In Medicaid-expanding states, the uninsured rate fell by an average of 4%.
- Millions have been determined eligible for Medicaid and the Children’s Health Insurance Program
- 3 million young adults gained insurance through their parents’ coverage.
- The Congressional Budget Office found that the health care law is making significant contributions towards lowering the deficit.
- Average premiums for coverage through the marketplace are 15 percent lower than the Congressional Budget Office previously projected.
- The rate of increase in real health spending per person is at its lowest point in 50 years and more than 3 percentage points under the historical average according to recent data.
- Despite house Republican’s fantasy that Obamacare would “kill jobs”, in the 10 years before the law was passed, 3.6 million private sector jobs were lost. Since its passage, more than 8.5 million private sector jobs have been created.
- More than 360 ACO’s (Accountable Care Organizations) – groups of doctors, hospitals and other health care providers coming together to give coordinated care - are growing across the country.
