Though the Affordable Care Act was crafted in an effort to supply people who have never had health coverage with better access to it, a surprisingly small percentage of Americans this year are newly insured, based on recently released polling data.

While most people in the country have employee benefits, enabling them to be covered with a health insurance policy, a new study indicates that a large segment of society is showing more interest in the Affordable Care Act.

For better or worse, a substantial number of business owners say that their employee benefits have been affected by the Affordable Care Act, according to a new poll from worldwide research organization LIMRA.

Though there still is some question about just how many people now have employee health benefits as a result of the Affordable Care Act, a new poll suggests that states which have embraced health reform tend to have a lower uninsured rate.

The American Health Policy Institute recently released a study which found that under the Affordable Care Act, many entrepreneurs foresee their employee benefit expenditures becoming more substantial. And while most financial assessments forecast similar price hikes, they may not be as substantial as originally anticipated, according to a new report from the Congressional Budget Office.

Four years removed from the signing of the Affordable Care Act and numerous postponements later, sentiment regarding to health reform law is more negative than it is positive, according to a recently performed poll.

Even though most Americans receive employee benefits through their workplace, a fairly substantial number of worker aren’t cognizant of what all of them are, particularly among individuals who aren’t far removed from graduating a college or university.

Americans who don’t have employee benefits or who missed the open enrollment deadline may have to wait awhile before they can shop through some exchanges, as a new report suggests that the marketplaces are essentially out of commission.

Among previously uninsured sign-ups, a mere 1.5 million enrolled through the federal health exchange website, nonpartisan think tank Rand Corporation found.
