Abstract: Studies using a variety of data sources, including the National Health Interview Survey (NHIS), the Current Population Survey (CPS), and the Health Reform Monitoring Survey, have shown significant gains in health insurance coverage between 2013 and 2014, as well as between 2014 and 2015 (Table 1). Prior studies have also shown some evidence of decreasing racial and ethnic coverage disparities under the ACA. Finally, two studies that used different approaches to estimate the effects of the ACA or of specific ACA policies on coverage changes both concluded that ACA coverage provisions were responsible for most of the reduction in uninsurance between 2013 and 2014.
