Case Management Insider, July 7, 2015
A new analysis by the Commonwealth Fund shows that most of the people who took advantage of coverage under the Affordable Care Act are happy with their insurance coverage.
More than 90% were happy with the physician chosen under their plan, and 71% reported that it was easy to find a primary care physician.
“The Affordable Care Act’s coverage expansions have been in place for nearly 18 months, and indications are that the newly insured are pleased with their coverage and are using it to get needed health care,” said Commonwealth Fund President David Blumenthal, M.D. “It will be essential to continue monitoring progress to ensure the law is delivering the affordable, comprehensive health insurance it promised.”
